All or none. Depends on the personality of the person. Gymnastics made me hyperventilate at school.

Netball- b**chy netball mums nearly destroyed me. For the record I quit playing at 11 after they made me cry one too many times, yes, you read right, the MUMS!

Yep, probably gymnastics (coming from someone who did it for 14 years...). You either like it or you don't. Or maybe dancing. Those mothers and teachers can be a little traumatic for me and I'm an adult!

Can't say I had actual trauma from them, but athletics, then T-ball and rounders (because we were made to play one of the two every single week in primary school), and then volleyball because I was really bad at it. I also know a lot of women who hated taking ballet classes when they were young.

Dancing, Physi and anything that involves makeup and skimpy costumes.
