Water polo!
I tried to join my college's water polo club, which i thought would be a casual pick-up game kind of thing. I was a strong swimmer (swam in high school) but no water polo experience.
Yah, apparently I tread water wrong. How is that even possible!?! They were way to serious for me.
I would want to learn how to surf. My brother tried to teach me in high school, but I dinged his board walking out past a wave and he was pissed. I never learned.
I would also want to learn to swim properly. I can swim, but I am not great at it and I certainly don't know the proper techniques.
Oh, and maybe learn how to play tennis, furreal furreal.

Gymnastics! I've always wished I could do the things they do. I'm not old at all but I feel like I'm probably too old for it now since in their "prime" gymnasts are still in their teens.
I'd love to get back into soccer someday. I'm thinking once I start running a decent amount, I may look into some local adult leagues :-)
Surfing would be very cool. Im not a great swimmer though.
I actually took up tennis last year being a 29 y/o so it goes to show that its never too late. Im not great but my coordination and fitness level has improved so much.
After watching the Olympics, I'd definitely want to give volleyball, maybe even beach volleyball a chance. I'm not a tall girl, but I think it looks like so much fun!
Rowing and surfing (we live my the ocean and I've never surfed). I have a bad shoulder so these are both out, although I've been thinking of taking a one of surfing lesson this summer for fun

I really regret never playing sports in school now that I'm older. I would love to do soccer or softball. There are no rec leagues for adults around here, so I'll probably just stick to running...
