]]> Whatever your age, nothing is more fun than charging around after a ball, or an opponent on another team and feeling the rush that comes with playing a team sport. Whether you gave it a go in high school or college, or always felt it wasn’t for you, trying out a team sport can have amazing benefits, including a greater sense of well-being as you bond with your teammates on and off the field. Here are three key team sports to try.

Netball

Netball is a fast-paced, active sport, in which most players have key roles assigned to them by the position they play. Once you’ve got the hang of each position and the rules that come with it, this game is definitely a contender for bagging the top spot of “most fun”. Clocking in at 60 minutes for each game, your cardio fitness will rapidly improve as you play this sport, and because the players are so reliant on one another to get the ball across the court, you are bound to make some fast friends pretty quickly.

Field Hockey

Make sure you come equipped with mouth and shin guards, hockey is not a game for the faint-hearted. With lightning speed, players maneuver the ball across the pitch, with the aim of hitting it into the opponent’s net. Take your time to test out some key skills, such as dribbling and passing, as without these a hockey game won’t last very long. As with many sports, communication between players is key, and many hockey teams allow plenty of time for off-pitch bonding so that players know each and trust other.

Doubles Tennis

Although not technically a team sport, playing as a double against another pair is a test of your and your partner’s ability to stay calm, communicate and think fast. Perhaps best played with someone you know fairly well (to avoid any mishaps or falling out!), when the game really gets going you can almost start to feel like you’re reading your partner’s mind as you work in tandem to defeat the opposing pair. Take time to practice your serves and rallies, outside of a competitive context, so you and your partner understand one another’s playing styles, your strengths, and your weaknesses.

]]> A big part of working out is finding a niche that works for you. Sometimes, finding the right kind of exercise that you enjoy is actually the hardest part of the process! However, once you do, you’ll be in a routine that you’ll never want to break free from, which is why it’s always worth it to never give up on trying to find what kind of workout you like best. Competitive sports aren’t for everyone, but here’s how to know if they’re actually the right thing for you.

You Love Working With Others

The awesome thing about competitive team sports is that it involves working with other people. If you’re someone who loves doing that, then this is literally the perfect kind of exercise for you. What could be better than strategizing with fellow players, whilst also getting a good workout in the process?

You’re Competitive By Nature

When you work out on your own in the gym, you may be silently comparing yourself to others who also happen to be working out at the same gym. But let’s be real—doing that is nothing compared to actually competing against another person in an intense sports game. If you’re a naturally competitive person, don’t let it out at the gym—let it out on the court.

]]> Making progress at the gym isn’t only about putting in an effort – it’s also about picking an activity you actually enjoy. Your personality can have a huge impact on your choice, and here are a few steps you should follow to pick an activity that fits you best.

Lone Wolf

If you’re self-motivated, have a busy schedule, or simply enjoy doing pretty much everything on your own, solo workouts are a way to go. Make your own fitness plan and hit the gym, or simply work out at wherever you feel the most comfortable.

Team Player

If you enjoy working out with others, sign up for a fitness class or give team sports a try. In addition to staying in shape, you’ll also be able to expand your social circle and make a bunch of new friends.

Perfect Balance

If you enjoy being around people during your workout – just not all the time – you can always mix things up. Work out by yourself on certain days, and practice team-based activities when you’re in the right mood.
