No, not anymore. I used to be on the volleyball team, all through high school, but ever since I started college, I gave up team sports. Now, I just run when I can.

I am a boxer, go running and do judo, as well as rugby, skiing and kayaking (though the last three less often).

Darts in the pub are about the closest I get to a sport these days.Played a fair few sports when I was younger though.Hurling and Gaelic Football as a child.Basketball and then Rugby in my teens and Soccer for quite a few years in my 20's.However injuries over the years have taken their toll and left me with dodgy knees so contact sports are a no-no these days.I do walk a lot for exercise though

I've been in a soccer team every year since about grade 3 so yes I play often.

I also play various sports with my friends in my spare time if it's a nice day out.

Used to be baseball back in high-school. Nowadays, I'm on a rec-league softball team.

I'm happy to see that many Escapists seem active, kinda kicks that "gamers sit on the couch all day" thing in the face, eh?

I used to play volleyball. Then I didn't do any sports for a LONG time. While I never was skinny, I did gain "a lot" of weight over the years. So now I'm getting back into exercises and what not to help get a bit into shape. But I'll NEVER EVER do any sort of competitive sport again, people just get way too fanatical when a sport is involved (including myself, while playing a f*cking game of volleyball nonetheless!!!).

I play tennis, was ranked #1 on the h.s. team 3 years in a row, and I'm trying to play now but it's hard to find reliable people to play with.

I grew up playing sports then stopped playing at secondary school and never started again.

It's probably been about 7-8 years since I've been involved in sports.

I game. It requires concentration, dexterity and quick reflexes.

In all seriousness though, I play football (soccer for those confused), mostly indoor. It's fun, but Christ it's tiring.
