I don't think any of us here are former professional athletes, but what are some sports that you are the best among your group of friends or family? What sports are you not so good at?

Good:
Basketball
Decent:
Football
Baseball
Terrible:
Soccer
Tennis
Others
I used to pitch slow-pitch softball (coed), and my accuracy was fairly decent. Also, my batting enabled me to hit well, and my running speed helped get me on base, plus run for extra bases.
Also, did very well at horseshoes, because it reminded me of slow-pitch softball!
Good: Golf, Baseball/Softball, Tennis, Football, Hockey
Ok: Basketball
"Nice try" : Soccer
The "good" categories I have played competitively in the past and still enjoy even now... Basketball was always fun with friends and playing "pickup" games. Soccer.... just not for me.
best sport was football but my disdain for coaches and practice hampered my efforts there
fairly decent at tug o' war and I know I could have been a professional buzkashi player 'cept no one else in my neighborhood cared much about it and I didn't have a real horse and the neighbors kept a close watch on their goats

baseball/softball is my best sport. in slow pitch i am a master at psyching out the batter.
auto racing is a close second for me.
after that football and basketball are a close third.
beyond that though i am somewhat rubbish in everything else, though i did reasonably well in tennis. out a ping pong paddle in my hand though and i will give just about anyone a run for their money, and drive them nuts doing it.

Tell me about it! However, getting smacked in the mouth or between the eyes isn't my idea of a relaxing game of table tennis! Full-contact ping-pong, anybody?

hmmm, full contact ping pong eh? sounds interesting. so how would this work? you play teams or just one on one?
The only sport which i wasnt too good at was baseball. But, why lie, ive always been good at any sport ive tried. Basketball i was a beast, football to me is actually too easy. Never tried hockey, but skating makes my ankles hurt. Running, sprinting, in soccer i was good too, played defense and you seriously couldnt score on me. Rugby too. I played goal keeper in handball as well lol
I once played tennis for the first time and scored on a guy too easily. Later i told him i had never played a game of tennis and he refused to believe me.
I can hit a golf ball straight, and ive only ever played golf like 3 times.
I remember at the age of 9 i beat my very athletic father, 6 3 and black, in a game of badminton. I took him all over the court and sprained his ankle lol
Idk, im 6ft, half black, lean and athletic..very few sports i cant be good at. Im just naturally talented.
If it wasnt for a childhood injury and moving constantly as a kid, id have easily been some sort of professional athlete. But, life took me elsewhere.
