What sports? I tried out for football and made the cut but damn academic standards conspired with my low motivation at the time and I couldn't play. True story.

netball? you dont know what netball is??
its a glorious sport, hot fit women run around in skin tight tops and short short skirts!!!! a wonder to behold, i tells ya!!! i play mixed, and thankfully we dont have to wear skirts LOL, tho i rekon id look darn sexy, what with my "totally buffed" legs LMAO in all seriuosness, its an awesome game to play: its a bit like basketball but there are some major differences. there are limits on where each player can move, you cannot run with the ball, once you catch it you are only allowed one step, no bouncing and running with the ball, and once you have caught the ball you have 3 seconds to get rid of the ball. its a very fast paced team sport. its good in that you cant be a ball hog, because you cant run with it, you have to pass it to a team mate. unfortunately it has the highest occurence of injury of any sport, especially ankles and knees (as i am finding at the moment, ouch)

for info on netball:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netball

lol im no jock, i was just indoctrinated as a kid, saturday morning meant playing a sport (something i hope to pass on in the future, tho im not keen on that at the moment lol)

Netball seems to be an interesting game though I've never heard of it. Is that considered to be a professional sport or is it "street" sport?
