Going to the gym, running, or cycling are all great activities to do to stay fit and healthy. In the beginning, they can be fun as well. However, after some time, the excitement just completely disappears and we start craving new things. Below is a list of 6 sports that you probably have not tried so far. If that is the case, this summer is the right time to give them a try! Who knows, maybe you’ll discover a new passion and a new talent that you didn’t know about so far!
Quidditch
Are you a Harry Potter fan? If that is so, you probably know what Quidditch is. However, this sport differs a little bit from the one in the popular movie. Unfortunately, it does not involve flying brooms. But don’t let that discourage you, it is still lots of fun! If you want to find out more about it and experience it live, you can go to Italy in July this year. The 2018 Quidditch World Cup takes place in Florence, which sounds like the perfect place for the occasion.
eSports
There is a debate whether eSports can be called sports or if they are just fancy gaming. We won’t go into that debate, but our opinion is pretty clear since eSports have a place on our list. When the temperatures are scorching hot or freezing cold, what better way to spend the day than by enjoying your favorite eSports! The tournaments are becoming more and more recognized, so if you get good enough, you can potentially also earn some serious money.
Extreme Running
Why just run when you can extreme run! Extreme running means that you need to run through a course with lots of obstacles and challenges that you need to tackle or avoid. Extreme running is not just fun, but it is also a great way to meet new people and run with teammates. If you really want to test your limits, give Parkour a try. This is extreme running taken to the max!
Foot Golf
Many people will say that golf is the most boring sport there is. That is because they have not tried foot golf! As the name says, this sport is playing golf with your feet. It’s a lot less expensive than the original and a lot more fun if you ask us!
Bike Polo
Yes, you can play polo while riding a bicycle. In this fun sport, two teams of three players try to out-skill the opponents and score a goal. Bike polo is gaining most popularity in Australia and there are competitions around the country that you can participate in if you want to test your skills!
Ultimate Frisbee
Ultimate frisbee is a fast and a fun game that requires speed, skill, and strategy. Ultimate frisbee is non-contact and low-risk and it is usually unisex, so you can play it with both your male and female friends. The sport is given to us by Australia, where it is taken much more seriously than in the rest of the world.
