All Things Sport...

All Things Sport...

There are many threads dedicated to sharing experiences - good times and not so good - so I thought I would start a thread for those on here who love their sport. For me - and I suspect for some others - sport is a good distraction as it often blocks out the more negative emotions and helps to avoid triggers that many other things in 'life' so often seem to do.

This thread can also be a place where like-minded (and not so like-minded people @utopia @Former-Member @Zoe7 lol) can 'discuss/debate' their respective competitions in their preferred sport(s).

For those that are definitely NOT into sport @Phoenix_Rising for example - avoid this thread at all costs - whoops just tagged you in..........hahaha!!!!!

Re: All Things Sport...

Too right, it does not please me @Zoe7 ! Fully accept you follow Lions, but I reckon you could support Swans when Lions are not playing. 😉

Hey @Boonana I love gymnastics. Used to do basic stuff at school. But really enjoy watching world cup, world championship, comm games and olympic when they are on.

Basically I love almost any sport.

Mainstream team sports, I follow Canberra Raiders in NRL, Sydney Swans in AFL, ACT Brumbies in Super Rugby, NSW Blues in SOO. I occasionally watch Netball, but prefer basketball, having played it when younger. Love tennis, but was never a good player. But was a good squash player. Really enjoy watching world class swimming, but am a terrible swimmer. Never learned how to until my teens. Like equestrian events, having been an avid horserider in my youth. Also love any athletic events, after being an above average athlete in my younger days. Mainly sprint events and long jump, which I competed in until my late 30s. I have to admit that was some time ago now. I will turn 60 next month! 😯

So essentially my sporting interests are wide and varied. And I am happy to tslk about pretty much anything to do with sport.

Re: All Things Sport...

I learnt so many new things tonight @Former-Member including your age I thought you were about my age - how wrong I was hey

My sister was an amazing sprinter and netball player. I loved basketball and softball - and any chance I got to play footy - was 30 years ahead of my time though - would have liked to be around now with the women's competition so prominent.
