Keep it light plz. For example, I am terrible terrible bowler. Just absolutely piss poor even compared to equally casual people, any time there's been some kinda get together involving bowling I have come in last by a huge huge margin. I need the bumpers. I can bowl a perfect game in wii sports tho.
FPS games as well, not really a fan and have never ever been able to hack it at them. After graphics got good enough I didn't find the perspective disorienting team sticks became the norm and I'm left handed so that was a weird thing to adjust to for me and by then it was 360 era CoD time and I wanted nothing to do with it and would just die 4 seconds into each spawn anyway.
Basketball. Which might not sound like a big deal, but when you're tall like me, everyone wants you for the team. I can dribble, and I can pass (hot damn, can I pass) but I can't shoot worth a damn and the most charitable thing anyone ever said about my defensive skills is that they're "technically not illegal."
Worse too is that it's not like I'm bad at sports. They probably saw me making a decent go at baseball or soccer and thought "Even if he's bad, we can teach him." They could not.
Sorry, fellow jocks. Basketball just ain't for me.
Same issues when I played as a kid. I could get the ball to someone who could shoot, but I could not hit the fucking basket to save my life.
For me it was hockey. I tried it one year in elementary school, and couldn't figure out any of the things my teammates were doing, like crossovers and lifting the puck. I didn't go back for a second year.
But I believe that hockey is a dying sport. Equipment and ice time fees at arenas are way too expensive for working families. And climate change no longer allows for outdoor rinks where kids can learn basic skills for free. There's a good reason that basketball and soccer are picking up massively in popularity in Canada, they're both sports that kids can play casually almost year-round with minimal and relatively cheap equipment.
The only sport I'm actually talented in is lacrosse, but it's so goddamn bougie that no school I went to ever really supported it. I remember one time in PE we just kinda split the gym in half with floor hockey on one side and basketball on the other. My buddy and I went to grab sticks and we saw they had lacrosse equipment so we dug out a couple sticks and started tossing a ball around. Our teacher was like "Hey, I appreciate you two finding something you're excited about, but it's just not what we're doing right now."
