I used to play basketball, soccer, and lacrosse. I also did a lot of skiing too and a little skating. *sigh* I don't think I'll ever get to play any sports again.  

Oh...I almost forgot. I used to do karate as well, six years of it and quite a few medals and trophies.

It's a bittersweet thread for me, but interesting nonetheless.

Before all the shanagans with my knee and wc, I used to play:
Netball for 20 yrs
Volleyball for 11 yrs
squash 4-5 yrs
I also love badminton and played at school.
I used to teach PE but that is not an option.

Now I swim for upkeep sake and garden.....  Well synchronised swimming is an event!  (sorry to any one who does that )

One day I'd like to get back to some sort of team sport.

Yay Team Kneegeeks!

Hey!

Well before this whole knee thing I played all this:

*volleyball
*basketball
*track-triple jump, long jump, high jump, 400 & 800
*karate-so close to a black belt
*hockey-THIS IS THE BEST SPORT EVER!!!!!!!  
*soccer
*football-I wish they would let girls play! lol, everyone   just says I am too small to play, haha shows how much  they know!    
*swim
*ski
*softball

I REALLY cant wait to get back to this all! But with all these setback, who knows when that will be. K, well, good luck with the knees everyone!!!!

I was on the swimming & diving team in high school, many moons ago, haha!! Also powder puff football, heck, we were rougher than the guys. but my love now is barrel racing with my 3 yr old quarter horse mare.

Basketball- 10 years.
Track- 5 years. (varsity captain/6th in the region for the 100m dash!)
Running- ever since I can remember (I'm almost 18)
Volleyball- 3 years
Soccer- 1 year

I played pick up fball games, rollerblade hockey, pretty much all that fun stuff. But I haven't been able to run/play sports since August of 2003. I've been told to give up my dream of returning to sports even recreationally, but I'd give anything to run again so we'll see about that. haha

Like to start jogging soon as well rather then going to the Gym.

What's a Highland Dancer?  Sounds cool.

[rindsu]

Highland dancing, is well scottish dancing.  It's one of the types of dance from Scotland.  Like how riverdance is irish dancing.  You can go to youtube and find some videos of it.  I was supposed to travel to Manitoba this month and dance in a tribute show, but alas, my legs will not let me.
