AirwickWithCheese Posted April 29, 2018 Share #6 Posted April 29, 2018 I played rugby once. Broke both collarbones on the same play. I retired shortly thereafter and switched to cricket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scottish sport of hurling, so much way better than curling, related to the Irish sport shinty, a Scottish friend of mine described as being like rugby, but with weapons.

I tried to get teams going in high school but the district administrators put a stop to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
