New sport?

Hey guys! So I really have been wanting to join a sport for a while now, but idk what I would enjoy >:/

I also feel like I’m kinda too old now to join one since I’m 15 and going into 10th grade. I used to be in gymnastics when I was little so I’m kinda flexible (I can still do splits and backbends) and I’ve tried soccer but I’m not good at it :sob: and I HATE softball so yeah any ideas?

I forgot to mention - I’m 5’2 and I also dislike running cuz I have a heart condition that makes my heart beat faster than normal so that not very fun :skull:

Track, it has a lot of things you could do, sprinting, long distance running, jumping and throwing (my group, discus is the best) track is so fun! I just started this year and im a freshman (15)

Ok so theres Different throwing events. So the first one is discus(my favorite) and that one you just throw this metal desk, but it’s not throwing like a Frisbee. Another is Shot put where you after throw a metal ball. Then the last throwing event is javeline where you just throw spear across the field.

Oh, sounds fun but when I was in softball, I couldn’t even throw the ball back to the coach and it wasn’t even that long of a distance :skull:

They all are thrown differently, shotput you hold and rest on your neck then you kinda push it out from your neck to throw.
Discus you hold the top of the disk, swing your arm and release it (idk how to explain it).
And javelin you throw close to how you think you would throw a giant pole/stick/spear.

I’ve been playing volleyball since I was in 4th grade and it’s pretty easy to start playing no matter your age, also because of your height you can probably be a libero!! (the people who always dive after serves and spikes) it doesn’t involve much running at all
