How can i start a sport now?

Question

I'm really interested in starting a sport that i've never tried before, but i'm going into 8th grade! people have been dancing, swimming, playing soccer, etc. since they were tots and i would suck compared to them. i'd like to do a semi-rare sport that not too many people do, but nothing dumb. does anyone have any ideas of sports i could do and how i would go about it? i'm not amazingly athletic, but kind of.

thanks!

hmm, sounds like me last year.

to be totally honest, i would wait until next year when you go into high school to start a sport.

because if you join a sport now, this would be the last year you'd be able to do it. where i live, town sports are over once you're in high school.

i've never done any sport until yesterday.

i'm going into ninth grade and i just started field hockey.

it's a HARD sport, there's LOTS of conditioning to do, but it's a sport that most people have never played before.

it's also a lottttt of fun.

so i suggest doing a sport when you're in high school :]
