Team Sports?
 

Does anyone participate in team sports? I thought it sounded like a great way to get some exercise and meet other health-conscious friends. I'd love to join a local kick-ball league, but my husband thinks I'm crazy. He is naturally really thin with a very active job (military) and would rather go to the dentist than exercise for fun!

I'm 27 with an infant and a toddler, so getting childcare every week for practices and games would be tough (my husband is gone a lot) but I want to find a way. I also considered roller-derby, but the league in my area is hardcore and scares me. LOL! If you participate in a team sport, what do you play?

Hi! I play soccer. There are a TON of indoor/outdoor/co-ed/women only leagues pretty much everywhere. I played in high school and college and at 27 can't give it up! It's a great workout and you can make a ton of new friends! I'm trying out for a semi pro team in the spring ;) I'm excited! You should try soccer it's soooooooooo fun :D. Good luck!

PS-I have a 4 year old and an 8 month old and yes its hard to get them taken care of but it is worth it FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!! I need that mommy time lol you deserve it :).

Gosh I'd love love LOVE to join a team of some sort. Like softball! But I'm way to self conscious to do it:( keep us updated!!

You should do it! I love kickball and would join something like that in a heartbeat! I've gotta do some research and see if there's something like that around here.

Thanks everyone!

Monstermommy, I totally agree about getting mommy time! I go to the Y most days to work out and put the babies in Stay & Play... I would go crazy without a bit of "me" time!

Andrbeck, I've always let the same thing hold me back and I feel like I've missed out on too much. I've decided that it's time to be brave and find as many things that make me happy as possible.... life's too short! :)

LongTallbee, you should! Kickball seems a lot more common than I originally thought!
