About This Quiz

Each sport brings its own unique qualities to the table, rewarding specific character traits and physical attributes more than others. By the time we're done, we're sure to match you up with the sport that really matches your personality and the talents and gifts you possess.

Maybe you're someone who loves to bask in the spotlight. If you are extremely strong and you have an aggressive nature, especially when you come across something you want, then perhaps football is the sport that best represents you. Should you also mention that your favorite season of the year is fall and you have a very healthy appetite, we'll be even more sure that we're heading in the right direction.

Perhaps you're more of a peaceful warrior. If you love to spend time in nature and the idea of practicing your craft for hours every day sounds appealing to you, then maybe you're a golfer at heart. If you can let frustration slide off your back and you possess a great ability to focus your mind, then we're likely to be encouraging you to tee it up on the links.

The spectators are gathering around to witness your magnificent abilities. Let's take the field of play and show them what you're made of.
