Yep. Same here. I’ve got a visual disability, which means I just can’t do things like ball sports. Which was all the PE teacher was really interested in doing. That and the cooper test. I also just don’t like sports in general. The teacher clearly wasn’t interested in trying to find something that worked with my disability.

Year one in high school, I stopped going three months in. Because it obviously wasn’t going to improve.

I basically took that hour to do homework, which was a much more productive use of my time.

Three years later we got a halfway decent PE teacher who was actually willing to at least TRY and accommodate my disability. Hand painted ping pong balls with a bright yellow marker to get me to try that, bought some new colored balls, etc. While it still wasn’t my thing, I was at least willing to try it since he put in the effort. We got along fine because of it.

As an adult though: I don’t do sports and it doesn’t interest me in the slightest.

But why? Are you also not doing sports in your free time?
