Full contact origami.
Spit ball tournament
Outdoor rock, paper, scissors league.

Those keep me really busy.
 
Volleyball...nothing like a good,strong spike...to let everyone know whats up on the court..lol!!
 
Nice question!

1. Running (5-7/wk)
2. Golf
3. Basketball
4. Lifting Weights

I'm sure when I go to college in the fall the weightlifting will be more like 3x a week, the basketball 2x a week, and the running a LOT less.

Try to mix in golf on the weekends!
 
Well, I broke my ankle 3 months ago playing basketball, but up until then I lived off of basketball, Ping-Pong [I noticed you called it table tennis....it doesn't make me any less of a player =-p] and I've recently started lifting weights.

I ride horses.

and play kickball.

riding horses isn't a sport ...ahaha

Anyway, it's nice to see pharmacists getting involved in sports/exercises. I used to play ping pong a lot (competing at city level). If i am not doing pharmacy, i definitely consider a career in ping pong. It's fun, exciting, and nice to get paid while u enjoy the game.

The best thing about ping-pong is the reaction I get from people when I tell them to quit playing [insert sport] and pick up a real man's sport like Ping-Pong 😱

there was a smiley face so I'm ignoring that comment!

here's a video of what I do. This is a little long but there's a fair amount of commentary that explains things more than just people cheering

I'm only 5'10". Gimme a ball, son, I break ankles...

cool i'm also 5'10"... back at rutgers depending on matchups i'd usually play the 2... yet i prefer to mix it up for rebounds down low on the other end. when i used to play i had a jumpshot but that was about it. my handle kinda sucks and i don't have great lateral quickness. now that im in the working world its hard to get a chance to play, let alone have some time to even work out...

2. used to swim in high school, no desire for the time commitment of D1 at UB bc of school, so just do it to keep in shape occasionally
3. racquetball once and a while

You know, I've always had a liking for tossing around the frisbee and even remember playing a game like this back in the day at school and loving it.

That video look AWESOME and has me wanting to find a group of people who do this. If I'm not mistaken they play this at FSU on the intramural fields. How long have you played?
 
hockey
would like to get back into lacrosse too

and in the off season: golf
 
Been playing competitive soccer ever since I was 5-6 years old...

still playing pickup 3-4 times a week...

I also play some basketball, because unfortunately....that's the sport all my friends are obsessed with.
 
Weightlifting, table tennis, basketball, tae kwon do, yoga, mountain/urban biking, archery, shooting, DoTA.

Got a pretty severe cork thigh last weekend so the first 6 activities will be on hold for about 6 weeks... 👎

I know, i love that video. I've been on the club team at buffalo for 4 years now. 5th and final season for me coming up soon...
 
Bar trivia is an incredible pasttime. Unfortunately, I can't find anywhere good around me.

That is one thing I really miss. We have the video one at one of the bars here, but it's too easy. That geeks who drink was really difficult, but it was teams, so it was a lot of fun.
