I used to play hockey. I was crap if anyone tackled me but as I was a sprinter I could usually outrun everyone to avoid being tackled! Wasn't much good at shooting though when I reached the goal :)

Ah - thanks to Wobbling I now know Shinty is Scottish not Irish. I knew it was Celtic.

At junior school it was just fighting with sticks.

I did a bit of hockey at Grammar school. But nothing after age 13.

I would love to be able to prance around on one leg like that, without falling over, to be fair :-)

You need to do a Jillian Michaels work out LD! She's big on that sort of thing.

Shame you gave up Sharkie, i used to play on the MGS hockey team against the local girls schools and we could have crossed sticks.

My mum always described shinty as 'girls' hurling', an even more violent labouring under the poor disguise of being 'sport'.
