Hellobee Boards

I wasn't allowed to play any team sports growing up. I danced for 11 years and played some tennis but not on any sort of team.

I cannot WAIT to put Wagon Jr. into sports!! We're both hoping he'll play baseball and soccer. Wagon Sr. was pretty talented in football until his mom pulled him out in early high school because she was too afraid of him getting injured. I think I'd like it if Wagon Jr. played football because I love watching it, but I'd be really scared.

As for our little girl... I'll honestly let her try whatever she wants to try. With both kids I really want to let them do whatever extracurricular activities they want to participate in, and if their grades slip, get them extra help with tutoring. My parents just took all my extracurriculars away and I stopped trying just to spite them, because I didn't want to prove them right in that if I ONLY studied I'd do better.

Where did I go with this?!? Sorry!!

I played in marching band.

DH, on the other hand, was captain of the football team!

My kids are welcome to go for any sports they like, I'd love to see them play! Though I'll probably be more insistent about them learning to read music and play a few instruments.

Didn't play any growing up. Wasn't very athletic when I was younger. Hoping LOs will have better coordination growing up.

I played softball and soccer in elementary school on community teams. In middle school, I started playing field hockey. I tried basketball once but hated it. In high school, I played field hockey and lacrosse.

In college I played D2 field hockey until I transfered to my second college, there I played club rugby. I loved that!!!

I played soccer up until I was about 14. I rowed competitively until I was 21, that's the biggest thing for sure!

I swam for funsies and was on our school's swim team for one year. I played volleyball and softball in high school. Now, I coach the girls' volleyball team at my school.

In middle school I was a really good triple jumper!

I played basketball and ran cross country in high school. I also played softball up until my 9th grade year. I was pretty talented at basketball. I'm 5'11, so I kind of didn't have much of a choice but to play I kind of ruined things when I developed a serious eating disorder when I was 15. I was able to still participate up until my senior year of high school...and then my treatment team wouldn't let me play and I had to enter intensive treatment.

I really hope our future children are interested in sports, and will support them in whatever they would like to try...though football and hockey scare me. A high school boy in our area was just paralysed this year playing hockey.

In Jr. High an H.S., I played volleyball, basketball, and ran track. DH played football, basketball, and golf. Now, we're trying to pick up tennis.

I was in gymnastics for 10 years and played softabll every summer from 5 - 16 years old. I was in volleyball and track in jr. high but didn't have much talent in either of these sports. I was a cheerleader in high school which was much more my speed.

Up until last year I played in sand volleyball leagues just to get some activity and what not.

I was on the volleyball, indoor track, and sailig team during HS.

None growing up as my mom didn't let me. As an adult, I ski, play tennis, and play golf.
