find a team sport to get fitter and have fun

Playing netball next week with my company against one of our agencies. I think this will be very funny. I haven’t played for years and years.

I’m a bit bored of the gym and my yoga and pilates classes are great, but don’t really improve my cardio fitness. When I think back to my teens I absolutely loved sport and was in my school hockey, netball, tennis and volleyball teams.

Whilst I keep fairly fit, going to the gym, running and swimming is all a bit insular. I really like the idea of training with a playing as part of a team again. So … what to do?

I’m considering rowing … but not sure if I’ll get the team interaction I’m looking for. I’ll have a look around for what else is going on locally.

Any suggestions of sports to try are very welcome.
