I've been playing darts for about 2 years or so. Starting off terrible, but stuck with it. Now had about ten 180's in practice and regular tons. I find it therapeutic to clear my mind and group 3 darts.

What are you decent at, sports wise?

Hey, some guys may be into that

I used to play football 'back in the day' till I did my knee in.

I was a right winger, kind of like Ronaldo style

Then I played pool for 4 years for my local pub, we always came 2nd in the league cos the working men's club had ex snooker players who always beat everyone

I'm also a poker wizard.

I know the maths of poker and the % chances of getting the cards I need on the turn and river etc

I love watching the WSOP.it gets to a headsUp situation, then for all the stratagy and previous mind games. They both go all in and stand up to wait for the flop, turn and river. Someone wins it and the commentators go hysterical about their poker skilz. ? I could bloody do that.

Heads up is all about playing your high card and being the first to bet.

The skill however, is beating everyone else to get to play heads up

I don't know why I would desire to make real such an act. Taping my mischievous cat Tabby, to a large ski, and edging her off a large ramp. Must be a weirdo. (I just imagine the windforce pining her long ears back and grinning as she sails through the air lol.)

I played semi professional Cricket for over 20 years, it was one level below professional. Played for a couple of County second XI when they were short due to injuries and squad promotions etc.

I still play now but it’s more recreational and I do it more for the social side than anything else.

I love sports but never good at any.

I am ok badminton player though but hasn't played since 2017.

Personal best long jump (4m), triple jump (9.38m), 14secs for 100m, 29secs for 200m and high jump 1.4m only and even tried shot put and only manage 7m.

Rather pathetic.

Anything hand eye really, Pool, Snooker, Tennis, Badminton, bowling. I don’t like cricket, average at football, but undersized for Rugby.

Nah, you'd be reet at my new sport of downhill wheelchair sledging. All you have to do is get yourself in the chair up the snowy/icy hill and then sit on your arse and let the chair whizz down again. You won't be able to stop or otherwise control the wheelchair, so just sit tight and let the adrenaline flow
