I'm just curious what sports are too late to start age wise?

I have a feeling fighting is the only one that you can still start late and make a career out of.

[Level5Nerd]

Don't you think sports like football are hard to make a career out of if you're between the ages of like 21-25?

[Level5Nerd]

The only two I can think of is fighting and dancing.

Why fighting? Fighting is easier to go pro in at an older age than most sports.

Its not too late to start anything, If you dont have the talent you wont make anything out of it anyway

Soccer is really hard to compete with others who started earlier. Hockey and swimming too.

I think soccer, cause it takes time to master a few things such as dribbling, shooting, vision and most importantly is your fitness, you must be able to sprint and run almost instantly without getting exhausted in the first 5-10 minutes, and you develop those faster at a younger age.

I agree, soccer is the most all-rounded sport to learn. You need to be big, but fast. Not too tall, because you need to be short to dribble well and be light on your feet. You also need big thighs to shoot hard, and good skill to control and pass the ball.

I have seen a lot of kids, who started soccer when they where about 10 or 11 years old. For them it was very hard to get involved seriously. They were missing a lot of skills, which others, who started at the age of six, allready had. Soccer is all about ball handling and getting a feeling for the game.

I would have to say Basketball. The time it takes to master a form of shooting and dribbling takes years.

tennis table is a good sport to start late

Gymnastics is one that you need to start young on. Other than that I think you only need to work really hard to keep up with other people.
