    I played on a volleyball team (official team, not for school) for about 5 or so years as a setter (starter member) and I really love the sport. I just wanted to see if anyone here also played volleyball or liked it (or any other sport really!)

    Sadly I'm not playing anymore. A knee injury forced me to quit and I'm not in a place to go back to playing, with my knees still fucked up, being away from home and college taking up my time.

    I haven't found a thread here dedicated to sports so I thought about making one (sorry if there's one already and I didn't notice...)

    Yup. I was in the volleyball varsity team when I was in High School. But I stopped playing since I got very busy in college. I dont even know if I can still spike

    I watch hockey (Canucks/Blackhawks/Panthers/Coyotes), basketball (Spurs and Raptors), football (Buccaneers and Seahawks), and sometimes baseball (Athletics and Blue Jays).

    I love hockey (Canadiens) and football (NY Jets :frowning2: and now Buffalo as Rex Ryan is awesome). My all-time favorite team though was the Montreal Expos.

    I watch pretty much all the sports under the Sun - Hockey, Baseball and Basketball would be my top three though. I played a bunch of sports growing up but basketball was my favourite. I used to play competitive basketball for different teams over the years. I even played on a co-ed team on the side just to make things interesting haha. Now I just play pick up and in casual leagues. I miss the competitive level everyday though.

    I tried volleyball out for a couple years back in the day (because I am tall) but it didn't come as naturally to me. I'm all about Beach volleyball though - that's some fun stuff :slight_smile:

    I have ridden horses since I was 6, run track since I was 12, and run cross country since I was 14. I love running and riding horses. I think watching sports is boring. I would much rather be playing the sports myself.

    I am not really big on watching or following any sports, but I do like to play various sports. Loved playing soccer when I was younger, even though my team was terrible. I also loved playing football at recess in middle school, despite typically being the only girl. I also love running, started in 7th grade; 6 years of track & field and it will be 8 years of cross county after this coming fall season.

    Cheerleading was sorta my life! I just never got the experience to be in our Varsity Cheer in high school, I even got offered by the coach of our University's cheer team but my parents never gave it a green light. I can't do it now, uni has been hell (and will continue to be).

    I've started to enjoy watching soccer although I'm horrible at playing it.

    I played on my middle school basketball team, but that's about it as far as playing really went(like being on a team; I loved gym in school.

    The only one I care/like to watch though is Football; occasionally Tennis.

    I have to side with your parenthesis though, OP...I love volleyball.

    I'm a fan of American Football (goooo Bengals!) and I watch pro wrestling every now and then. Other than that, I've done Aikido for a few years, as well as swimming... Thinking of going back. A bit of gym work wouldn't hurt either...

    yeah count me in too :slight_smile:.

    I am somewhat happy Klitschko defeated that American boxer(Jennings) and now wouldn't mind Manny Pacquio defeating Mayweather...but don't care that super much about them.

    also looking forward of potential Bellator fight: Tony Johnson vs Vitaliy Minakov.

    As well as in boxing: Kubrat Pule'vs next matchup

    And...: hoping Barcelona wins the CL.

    basically ^ for now.

    I used to swim, play hockey, rounders, netball, cross country and athletics before I got injured.

    Huge fan of Rugby and watch it all the time. Love Ice Hockey and catch local games if I can but they aren't a patch on the hockey in the US, Canada and Europe.

    Hate football (soccer) with a vengeance. Will never ever be a football widow.

    The only two sports I really watch is hockey (Go Canucks! ...oh wait they're eliminated), and soccer. I used to play ice hockey, but unfortunately goalie equipment gets pretty damn expensive. I also love to play tennis, but can never find anyone to play it with me
