Close between ten pin bowling and snooker.
Soo...
the top 3 for now are
Football (soccer)
Basketball
Hockey
first two, I expected to be the most popular, however hockey is a surprise for me (I was rather expecting to see volleyball there.
I'll add one vote for volleyball ♦, i'm a huge fan and an amateur player; i've played it at pro level until 18yo
Top 3 of mine is Soccer (Football), cycling and sailing (miss that 1 in the poll ;()
I’m goalkeeper of mine own football team. So I play it a lot and watch it also on television.
I like to watch cycling on television and use mine bicycle to go to different places in the neighbourhood.
Sailing is also a sport what I like to do. Only is it more fun to do it with friends than alone.

Probably lot of Finnish voters because ice hockey is like a national sport here.
SDK1987, yeah good point. I forgot about sailing. Not sure how that happened as I sail myself
Anyway, good to see a fellow sailor!
PerusJamppa, you're probably right!

Soccer and running (not on the list).

Floorball yeah, maybe more as a pastime though. Also, disc golf is the fastest growing sport in Finland and I think I've heard it's actually the fastest growing sport in the whole western world.
For me football (soccer) is the best. I love to watch it and i also played it. Now i play futsal, it is less running ♦.
I have played futsal too. I think it’s an intensive game to play, because you need to attack and defend with your whole team. For me was it not that intensive, because I was the goalkeeper
football, swimming, tennis
i was playing all three of those sports until i've got ACL broke X(. now i only can swimm and wait for knee surgery ♠_cool:
Canadian Football is not up there.
Better game than US football, but nothing beats Aussie rules -- also not up there.
For watching, the only pro sport worth watching is women's tennis.
Peace,
