I play five-a-side football but only at a friendly level. I've had some good times doing so. In fact all things going right I'll have a game arranged for next weekend. It's just difficult considering many of the usual players are still at University.

My best five-a-side (hour) record is sixteen goals scored. I don't think I'll break that again. The defence would need to be seriously shoddy to beat that total.

I can't wait to play again.

What is your side like? Do you play outdoors or indoors?

[Andy_is]

were an indoor team currently competing for the wooden spoon in the bottom league (go go Bayern Munken! - dont ask )

that said we never have a full fit squad,
1: we have two lads out at the moment with fractured kneecaps! i cant even begin to think how much that would hurt
2: ive got dodgy hands (and a broken finger at the moment)
3: another lad is just broken (we call him the £6.34 man! we can rebuild him! we have the technology)
4: my best mate's knee's ligaments are playing up
5: were unfit
6: we only just realised we supposed to score at the other end

yeah... maybe we should just quit if it wasnt so much damn fun!

Used to do lots of sport. Captained school field hockey team. Competed at regional athletics finals. Now I just play football with my friends in the park on Sunday afternoon.

Since coming to uni I've taken up Squash and Ultimate Frisbee, both of which I really enjoy. Used to play some basketball when I was at school (our team won the Scottish National Championships, no thanks to me) but was never very good as I don't really have the height or shot to be useful.

Also play some cricket when I get the chance. Since coming to uni - Top score: 28, best bowling figures 2-13. Nothing much to boast about really, but then I always end up batting right at the end of the innings when we need to be scoring at 10 an over and getting run out. The time I got 28, it was because we were short on players so I had to open.

used to play hockey, was ridiculously fit at one stage too, that was 3 years ago and when I try to run anywhere now I collapse in a heap of failure

[Cougar]

So some will have seen the shot before (I'm in blue) but here is what I do for sport:

Rugby League, I was captain of University of Manchester a few years ago, I now play for Scunthorpe.

I play Union in the winter, when I can be bothered and 5 a side footy twice a week all year and go to circuit training. I'm still pretty fat though, god knows what I'd look like if I didn't do as much.

I used to play 5-a-side up until I was about 15, when I was still vaguely active. Dislocating my hip playing rugby put paid to all of that though, and I've never got back to it. I was in a pretty average team, we always ended up somwhere in the middle, though we did come runners up in a cup competition once, heheh.

We're not that bad!!!

[Cougar]

You went to TASC (appart from the fact that it is a pretend university) I once went on tour with the TASC womens rugby league team and they were hot and filthy as hell...happy days.

Also rugby league does not involved nudity;it involves running into huge grim eyed northern men and then drinking flat warm bitter before doing a 25 hour shift at the steelworks/mine.

i am not a happy bunny. my defence just gave up at half time... *cries*


pro tip: dont be a keeper if you have no defence, i think ive put my back out through picking up the ball from the back of the net

[Optimus Prime]
