Like Barbara, walking is my main way of exercising today, and I live in a lovely rural area for that, but I also enjoy aquafit - I recommend it for a real "feel good" feeling!

I played soccer, basketball, and loved (sorry!) hockey. But have definitely settled into a more sedate lifestyle now!

Reporting by pigeon makes it special. In my early years I tried baseball without success as my nearsightedness left me unable to throw or catch with any accuracy. Marching band was a safer activity, and a kind of exercise too.Mike Brubakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13065245846262417519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-427560122717203300.post-90206881242970696612017-08-26T17:00:50.126+01:002017-08-26T17:00:50.126+01:00Netball is usually played by girls and is bit like...Netball is usually played by girls and is bit like basketball, but has its own rules, about moves and who can shoot goals. Rounders is a tamer version of baseball, played in schools- you score points by hitting the ball and running round three bases back to the fourth home base. You could easily set up an informal game in a field or on the beach by using any bat or raquet and marking the bases with jackets or bags. My father took part in a parents v pupils match at a school fete day, ran to catch a ball, collided with someone and cracked some ribs - outch! Another sport hazard!

I have never heard of "netball" or "rounders," though maybe they are just different names for games we have in the U.S.Postcardyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16399915833682943432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-427560122717203300.post-48737672574616688502017-08-26T14:50:34.468+01:002017-08-26T14:50:34.468+01:00I hated field hockey too.
