How easy is it to get into a new sport?

I'm always a bit envious of people who are into multiple sports. Literally all I watch is football, but it would be nice to get into another sport just as much or even marginally as much.

Loads of people were going on about Cricket recently, so let's use that as an example. Has anyone on here just taken up watching a new sport? How did that go for you, and was it easy?

Its pretty easy. My daughter has been playing netball for a while and we attended a couple of Celtic Dragons games last season. I only know the basic rules from watching my daughter play but i appreciated the skill on show and the event. Obviously the more you see the more you enjoy.

I have played and followed Cricket all my life and the T20 games are practically nights out and we always take down a good group some are not interested in the game at all.

There needs to a base interest there, otherwise you will go and just be looking at your phone all day, but there are no rules that people need to have a base knowledge to enjoy something, even in football.

Going to Agree with Netball, Its end to end stuff and a team can be down by 6 and it turn around so quickly

We saw a fair few Team Bath games last year, as my daughter plays for them and we have got to know a few of the players, infact last weekend we purchased Season tickets for the this season on the weekend, 2 adult and 2 U16 for £350 , not too bad imho

Rules are fairly easy to pick up, though i watch 3 or 4 games / training sessions a week, so i should have picked it up by now
