[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 510728, member: 13739"] Field hockey and netball are both considered pretty girly sports here in the UK. Most schools concentrate on those two sports for girls, whilst the boys play football and rugby. I've never played field hockey, and tbh would prefer to play another variant such as lacrosse. Netball is pure sh*t. I honestly don't understand why it's still played. It's basically just a boring version of basketball (although almost certainly pre-dates basketball, in the same way Field hockey probably pre-dates most other forms of hockey). I used to play basketball, and watching the girls play netball was tedious. It's not as if basketball is a physical game, so there really is no reason why it's not played instead of netball at school. Unlike baseball and american football, basketball is a genuinely great sport to both play and watch (I can imagine baseball and american football are pretty fun to play, but are soo boring to watch).
