I remember in eighth grade they started doing Co-Ed, but I was still in the female class. Same in high school... though I only took PE my freshman year, then took it as part of summer school immediatley afterwards where that WAS Co-Ed, but a special circumstance)Donicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14942524211760294146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652799544445548860.post-23173154096741992182018-04-12T06:21:44.814-07:002018-04-12T06:21:44.814-07:00Like Mallory, I found my niche in archery.

(Archery is all about eye dominance, because you need to see where the damn arrow is pointing.) I do like sports... I just really really suck at them. Took a volleyball unit for one of my PE credits for college. Enjoyed it, but like I said. I sucked at it!! (That along with Yoga) .I found it hilarious my fifth and final summer working at camp I found myself on the athletics team because I was the archery instructor. There happened to be two professional basketball players from Portugal and a Black belt in karate on the athletics 'team'. Ha. Ha. Ha. Loved those girls though.Donicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14942524211760294146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652799544445548860.post-90160454855964801532017-05-24T05:02:44.598-07:002017-05-24T05:02:44.598-07:00I have Dyspraxia so apart from the Dance unit we d...I have Dyspraxia so apart from the Dance unit we did at Christmas every year I SU-diddly-UCKED at PE. Also, here in the UK (or at least in the craptacular school I went to) we don't do Archery for PE I have done it though on a week long field trip with the primary school I went to. I loved it and I was quite good at it despite the Dyspraxia. Our classes at high school were separated except for during the dance unit.BackwardsBathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03788354818117479178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652799544445548860.post-61856297823516580922014-09-01T08:54:08.347-07:002014-09-01T08:54:08.347-07:00I am in 6th grade, and my gym classes are seperate...I am in 6th grade, and my gym classes are seperatedAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652799544445548860.post-50120107939214954732013-12-23T16:48:35.138-08:002013-12-23T16:48:35.138-08:00volleyball is awesome I play club w people 3 years...volleyball is awesome I play club w people 3 years older than me and im only 10Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652799544445548860.post-91828712982812151592013-09-19T23:42:48.866-07:002013-09-19T23:42:48.866-07:00Same here.

We were only together for Dance, and sitting volleyball. All the sporty girls think it's the most sexist thing in the world, and to be honest, I was pretty hacked off too.

He thought he was doing me a favor by letting me try to hit the ball. I think I had more than 20 strikes when realized that I really, really didn't want to be trying. Another girl, much better at hitting, had a sprained ankle anyway (and my tricep was sore from pole vaulting in track and field) so it worked out.SJSiffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00996362396265436534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652799544445548860.post-1738652752914264472009-12-07T15:04:56.357-08:002009-12-07T15:04:56.357-08:00I never understood why anyone would want to play a...I never understood why anyone would want to play a sport where balls fly at their face.
