[quote=Anonymous]I'll price a weird, non-recruitable sport for you: my dd started racing outrigger canoes on a team at age 12. Joined up with a friend who had lived in Hawaii and loved it from the first day. Cost: $75/year for a junior racing membership to the club. The club had paddles and life vests, and you race barefoot and in a tank top and shorts so there's no investment in attire. I don't even think colleges *have* outrigger teams so this was for fun, fitness and to get out on the water, plus it's an extremely friendly and supportive community. The (few) schools where interviewers had read her full application had a lot of questions about outrigger, so it ended up being good for something in the college rat race. Now, can someone please do polo, for the other end of the spectrum? :^) And yes, I know polo is recruitable. [/quote]
