Your school has a requirement to be on a sports team?! That's incredibly time-consuming and stressful even if you love sports. I loathe them and would have had a nervous fucking breakdown.

Yes, I know nobody cares, but I just get really anxious by proxy when I hear about things that would be a nightmare for me happening to other people, and when I feel something I have to say it. Ignore if you like.

Yep. You can do an independent study where you go to an outside structured activity for at least a certain amount of times each week, but that would require me to have a car I could drive and probably isn't even possible for some people :/

But yeah. It's kind of fucking awful.

Fortunately a majority of the colleges I'm considering (that have a sports requirement) also happen to have stuff like yoga and beginner's equestrian classes to fulfill the requirement

I've never heard of any college having a sports requirement other than like one or two semesters of what ultimately amounts to "gym class for college kids"

I'd be so pissed :/

On the other hand, college credit for badminton was awesome.

The college my parents went to had the "sampler" class, which took half a semester and included a mandatory swimming test, and then four more phys-ed classes (half a semester each, so two and a half semesters). My mother played on the softball team and took bowling and volleyball. Dad took beginning ice-skating and racquetball. All phys-ed classes were pass/fail, and you passed by showing up to every class in appropriate clothing and participating in the class. (It was a dedicated engineering school, so they weren't exactly trying to push sports.)

I only had to take a total of one semester of gym in college. It generally feels like a waste; it's not like that one semester is going to make a huge difference in my overall lifestyle.

The school I'm on placement at (as a student teacher) also has a compulsory sports team requirement, requiring students to attend at least one practice during the week and also play on Saturdays. This is in addition to regular PE classes.

I'm glad my school didn't do this.
