Hi all, when i was in the DR last, i was asking a local guy where i could play some sports. I said i like soccer, obviously, coming from England. He said tho, that the only game played is Baseball. And that i probably wouldnt get a game because most guys or teams dont like others playing. Is this true?
When i move to the DR, I would love to play some sport, its a big part of my life here, i play cricket, golf, soccer, tennis etc .
So my question is, how come cricket isnt a major sport in your country, seeing that you are in the carribean? Is soccer played anywhere? Has anyone tried to teach or intergrate these sports into society?
I know the reasons why baseball is big. But how would i go about getting into it. I'll try anything. Its only a poorer version of cricket anyway, and im good at that ! Are there leagues and teams that i could sign up for?
Do you have professional sports? Do they get well paid? What sports are taught in schools?
Help me out folks
