Voting Question: Beginning field hockey??????????

I am beginning high school next year. I play tennis competitively year round, therefore havent had time to focus on a fall sport, such as field hockey, soccer, crew, etc. I am planning on rowing crew freshman year, but if i end up hating it, will it be too hard to begin playing fiekd hockey??? I have tried soccer and hated it, and its waytoo competitive anywyas. I thought that since field hockey looks fun, has straightforward rules, andis not overly competitie, i coukd give it a shot. But overall, what do you think???Yeah, my guess is that tex whatever is a hockey player, many think they kick ass but in reality, everyone hates you. I sympathize for you :-( i really do. And not once did i say soccer was hard, i said i hated it, only BECAUSE it requires almost no skill, and when you put people with no skill togther, whaddya have?? BAM!!! A melting pot of no skill. Doesnt take much to figure that out...... And soccer players who are skilled: please dont take offense to this. I just feel strongly because i can barely dribble :-) i hold nothing but respect for you and your sports- just not my first answerer. more

Resolved Question: Do you think cheerleading is a sport I DO?

am 14 and i have been cheering for 9 years i love it and im so tierd of people saying its not a sport. here is some reasons why i think cheerleading is a soprt Stratigy- 1.Like all recognized sports, cheerleading has big-time strategy. One very important aspect of cheering is knowing when to say certain things. For instance, they only use touchdown cheers when their team has made a touchdown. Knowing when to say the right thing during a game is kind of like debating. trash talk- (ALL THOGUH I DONT DO YOU BECAUSE I WAS TOUGHT NOT TOO AND I RESPECT THAT 2.Every athlete knows that sports involve a lot of trash talking. Cheerleaders could possibly be the worst trashers of them all because a part of their sport is calling out the other team. For example, if one of the teams comes over to the other side of the field they might use a classic cheer like: “We’re hot, you’re not so go light up in the parking lot. Yeahhhhhhhh! Wheeeeew!” I have to say though that trash talking in cheerleading is bringing a new aspect to the term, because members even slander their own team mates! They are definitely one up on all the other sports. Uniforms- 3.Every recognized sport has uniforms and cheerleading is no exception. In fact, their uniforms could possibly be the most recognized of any sport. Uniforms are perfected to best suit the athlete’s needs. In cheerleading, the girls are put in super-duper short skirts that probably do not even fit the dress code at the school. But there is a valid reason for their size. Short skirts allow for greater movement than a long skirt. The guys are put in baggy shorts or pants. There is a definite reason why girls are dressed in skirts and not pants. Remember when we were discussing how there are strategic moves in cheerleading. Well…some of those moves tend to reveal a little more than others and that can sometimes be pretty entertaining to all that testosterone in the crowd. The shirts also tend to be pretty small and I really can’t figure out how that would be of any use to the cheerleaders. So again, I have come to my own conclusion and deducted that again they are for the entertainment. Popularity- 4.Anyone who has been to high school knows that the jocks are usually pretty popular and party pretty hard. This goes the same for cheerleaders. Like the male athletes, the cheerleaders are also strangely popular among their fellow peers. I really can only attribute this to their unique and special athletic ability. They also have the great ability to party on and on and on. This has to be because of their superior build and strategic mind. TV 5.Maybe the most compelling evidence of all is that there are televised competitions. Every sport has televised competitions and so does cheerleading. I can just imagine the whole family gathering around to watch the national championships of cheerleading. It is probably the equivalent of the Super Bowl. Now don’t try and deny it, I know you have watched one of these in awe. Well…maybe you haven’t; but there is always a first for everything. wow well you say we dont have a ball well swimming doesnt have a ball and thats a sport you say we dont compete against anyone well umm YES WE DO we do not compete agaisnt ourselves we compete agaisnt other teams and we copete to win the trophy we have rules and boundrys just like soccer football baseball swimming and a whole bunch of others also we are talking about competitive cheerleading not cheering at a game you say a sport needs direct conflic well for your info we yell at all teams so hahaha and to ever said that cheerleaders wouldn't run laps HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA we do that pluse our whole work out. do you see the muscles and abs that cheerleaders have well you should loook also if you are going to make fun of our uniform than make fun of swimmers theirs is just as reveling as ours but we need the skirts cause we need to be airodinamic and we are not just a feminam sport we are masculin too so if you cant tell me why cheerleading isnt a sport with a LOGICAL defination well hahahahaha and if you say something about cheerleading not being a sport . . . trust me. . . one cheerleader. . . . no . . . . all the cheerleaders will have a better reason why that answer is false 15 hours ago Additional Details 15 hours ago REMEMBER: ATHLETES LIFT WEIGHTS, CHEERLEADERS LIFT ATHLETES!!!!!!!!!! 14 hours ago its long because i am trying to prove a point 14 hours ago its not a dnce off we compete against 4-20 other teams just like in the olympics well than floor hymnastics is not a sport too cause thats like the same thing as cheerleading only we do stunts 14 hours ago there are leques of cheerleading their intermidiate advanced also there are cheer sponsers like pop warner and USC 14 hours ago IM TALKING ABOUT COMPETITIVE CHEERLEADING NOT CHEERING AT A GAME 14 hours ago these are some sports that are not in the olymipcs- bowling water skiing Chess and a bunch more 14 hours ago gymnasts are good i can admite that but they cant do stunts the compete alone and in cheerleading you have to rely on one another \ just like any other sport 4 minutes ago are there cheerleaders at swim are their cheerleaders at hockey are there cheerleaders in a lot of sport no so not all sports need a cheerleader also cheerleaders are very inteligental we have brains and we no how to use them i got a 81 on my math midterm more

Resolved Question: Trying out for the field hockey team-and I am totally clueless. Want to help?

Okay so i'm going to be a freshman in high school next year. i was on the lacrosse team in eighth grade, but my new school doesn't have a lacrosse team. lots of girls on the team were planning on joining the field hockey team in high school, cuz they're kinda similar. when i went to the tryouts for the lacrosse team, they didn't actually cut anybody, even though some people, including me, had never played before. when my friend tried out for another sport [i forget what] for 9th grade, she said that some people made it onto varsity, and the rest went to jv, but none of them were cut. so basically i'm asking, and what can i expect for the tryouts? do you think that someone who only knows the basic rules, but has never played before, can make it onto the jv team? do they normally cut people on jv teams? and what would we do at the tryouts? since i've never played before, would we actually have to play? or would they just...do drills and such? sorry it's so long! i'm kinda nervous,so... more

Resolved Question: Should I wear a skirt in order to play field hockey?

I recently petitioned the school board to allow me to play on the girls field hockey team because their is no guys team. They eventually gave in as it would be gender discrimination but the rules say I have to wear a matching uniform with everyone else. The team uniform is a sleeveless top and skirt with fitted bottoms. Should I wear this in order to play? more
