Cricket. Pretty quick bowler. Lots of bounce.

 

come to think of it I was the best "spin bowler"in my primary scholteam but other schools would not "play" with a girl in the eam so got hoyed oot :lol:

Hardly fair... how competitive was the cricket? We just played kwik cricket competitions, and we had to have girls in our team... always won them too.

I was pretty good at cricket, although I only ever played with my mates as we never really covered it at school due to our rugby-obsessed PE teachers, which is one of the reasons I've never really liked rugby. Wish I could have been bothered to join a cricket club rather than play computer games and get drunk, I could be warming up to play Kenya this afternoon. :lol:

 

When I started university I started jiu-jitsu, which I've now been doing for about 3 and a half years. I'm a 2nd kyu (2 off black) but I could have got further by now were it not for the demands of my course. Still as I've been told, it's not a race, it's a journey....

was on school teams for basketball and football.. not through any degree of skill.. more that I was enthusiastic and worked hard on the pitch/court.

 

never really enjoyed other sports.

I played on the netball, hockey & rounders teams at school and was reasonable at all of them but not great.

 

I played football as well for a local girls team and was going to go to a trial for the county one time but I ended up injured - gutted at the time but probably a blessing in disguise as I don't reckon I would've made it through anyway.

 

I was decent at sprints and high jump/long jump as well but not enough to do them seriously, and I have about 8 awards from a gymnastics club when I was in primary school, hated that with a passion though tbf.

Was a half decent footballer but had no bottle to do anything decent so never stood out. Bascially, was too scared to do anything in a proper game other than keep it simple, which used to fuck off the PE teachers who'd picked me.

 

Was a canny batsmen and, if I don't say so myself, a mighty fine slip catcher. Also dabbled in nets as a laugh where I still play today. Basically, I'm canny good at catching.

Looks like you're in luck, Meenzer is more of a pitcher apparently. :lol:
