I tried out for and made the junior boys soccer team in grade 9. After that season I never did play high school sports. The problem with my old high school is that alot of student are bused in early in the morning and hence that is when they held most practices. I lived near the school but I was too much of a lazy ass to get up at 5:45 am for badminton practice!

I've been doing cross-country and track since ninth grade (I'm a junior now) and I dabbled a bit in wrestling.

Track scholarship is good (actually X-country)
4 times mvp for my class (freshman, sophmore, junior, senior) broke 5 minutes on the mile in freshman year made varsity sophmore year. Holds multiple school records . I did all the seasons in high school, cross country, indoor, outdoor, partly cause my high school coach required it except for a few football players who came in just to do field events. Now I just do one season which I don't mind at all. That's why I post pics of me in a uniform, they are the only pics that are already on the net that I had access to

In primary school I played soccer and cricket. At my highschool it was compulsorary to play a sport, I continued with soccer until I finished school, might take it up again, gave up cricket after one year and changed to athletics, and finally changed to volleyball. I wasn't very good at any of them. I was ok in volleyball and soccer, but not good.

I was in track and cross country throughout all four years of high school.
In track, my events were the 800M, the 400M and the 1600M.
I was about middle of the road; 5:30 something mile, 1:18 800, 60s 400.
It was a lot of fun.

I never was on any school teams or the like for sport...it never much intrested me...I was made captain of the school AD&D team....we won the scottish finals and went to the overall UK finals at GenCon where we took second place by 1 point....to a team who got bonus points for dressing up.....
While I was at school I was also involved in my sword fighting but that was totally seperate from the school....I've done a little fencing at uni, but the very strict rules do not appeal to me....I believe in kill shots that would kill rather than aiming for the tip of the other guys toe or finger....

I never participated as an athlete. When I was in HS, I did OFFICIATE HS soccer, however, and continue to do so to this day.
