Oddball sports you actually enjoy!

  1. Caber toss (tossing a large tapered pole called a “caber”) for some reason, I used to dream about it when I was going through puberty
  2. Calvinball
  3. 43-man Squamish
  4. Women’s beach volleyball
  5. Quidditch
  6. Crab Soccer (I used to enjoy it in Jr High, too old and out of shape to enjoy it now)
  7. Paper Football
  8. Log Rolling
  9. team handball (like soccer or hockey without the needless challenge of having to use your feet or sticks to put the ball in the goal)
  10. Curling
  11. Wiener dog racing
  12. Downhill skiing
