Other sports

Post by Frenzal »

There's a big thread on soccer, but that seems to make sense seeing as we play footbag. So anyone else, like me, not make sense and come from an odd sporting background? I played rugby union and cricket before i discovered footbag, I've since dropped rugby but still roll the arm over for the local cricket club.

I used to play a number of sports in school like swimming, squash and Rugby but I've since left those behind. I miss squash though, that game kicked ass. I was pretty good too.

I do Wing Chun Kung Fu and other than footbag that's about it. These 2 are more than enough for me and keep me busy 6 days of the week.

I follow soccer a lot but have not played since I was about 12. I actually got into footbag through soccer; I was looking for a way to get my legs more coordinated and was going to buy a soccer ball when all of a sudden my 2 buddies had this little crochet bean bag thing...
