Topic: How did you end up becoming a fan of your best team and best sport activity. - page 3. (Read 301 times)

I became a big fan of boxing because of family tradition; all of my uncles and relatives gather every Sunday for local fights that were televised on TV, and each of them analyzes every fighter that will fight on those events. I grew up listening and watching how they analyze and watch.
And when I'm growing up, Manny Pacquaio the Pacman is a fever in our country; can you imagine there were no traffic and zero crime rate whenever Pacman fights? I grew up watching all of Pacquiao fights and we became a country that is passionate in boxing; we now have the only 8 World Division World Champion in Manny Pacquiao.

I become a fan of my favorite sports team because of the player skills the first I was introduced on watching this sports in TV. As a tradition in my country, we do have favorites and bet on them against other person who has a favorite to the opponent team.

As time passed by, I become attached to the team itself since my favorite players legacy is still there so I still support them through up and down.

I believe most people choose favorite club the same manner to mine since there’s a lot pf bandwagon fans to the team with strong line-up.

I am not a fan of football but I do know some personalities although I lack the knowledge about their game and stats.

Basketball. That's for me. I became a fan when I was a kid and basketball was one of the most popular sports here in our country. We create basketball courts anywhere, halfcourt only, in the streets, or sometimes even in the small backyard using a small ball or even a tennis ball just so we could play the game.
I can still remember my small board and ring where I used to play on Saturdays and Sundays when there was no school and I am using a tennis ball that was intentionally taken out the green part of it so that it would be more bouncy.
I played in small leagues before and ever since my knee was busted, I stopped, although I still do some shooting sometimes. I don't think it will be easy to erase that from a person, once he loves the sport, he will love it until he is gone.

Coming from a household that watches a lot of football, it was pre determined that I'll be a football fan but my choice of club was a bit more tricky; I had relatives supporting multiple clubs from different leagues and was influenced slightly by all the different clubs. Barcelona stood out for me with their style of play and club heritage, players like Ronaldinho and later Messi contributed to my decision.

I have lots of football clubs I enjoy watching cause of their style of play and a couple of exciting players in the squad.

There was nothing special. I just thought I would check out a match in which one of the countries was where a really good football player played in. You said we don’t have to mention the name but it was Lionel Messi  

From then on, I started watching La Liga Series after hearing about it from friends and saw that Messi was playing for Barcelona. After that they became my favorite team and even now without Messi, I still am a Barça fan.

the reason why I started supporting my main club is because while growing up, people around me loved it and talked alot about it. At the time, I haven't started watching games and didn't know the players in the team but just fell in love with that club. I grew and started watching games and automatically, that became my club and regardless of thier performance, I always watch thier games and wish them the best. Afterwards, I got to watch a lot of leagues and fell in love with not just the team but the players that comprise those teams. The way I now do it is that apart from one or two club in different leagues that looks like my main club, other clubs that have my favorite players and that have been doing well in the leagues becomes my favorite club that I always wish they win most of their games.

Most of us like myself didn't grow up in environment where we could watch games at home or that access to viewing centre was available. If that was the case, it would have been easy to develop love for certain teams based on performance. I believe those that are resident of England or spain and are closer to certain club or thier stadium will automatically fall in love with that club due to proximity factor. First love is usually a function of what people or environment gives you afterwards you get to love a certain team based on performance.

This is how sport is if it is about clubs. I noticed that I also like to support clubs that are winning. But not just only one club but several clubs. I always pick different clubs in each top leagues. Sometimes it may not be the leading club but the club that worth winning the league. Because I support the club this season, that does not mean I will support the club next season. I am not a fan of any club.

Well it all started from my primary school days when I was little and always playing football where we would have to set of 4 (11) per team, and of a total of 44 in the class were everyone under pressure must partake in the activity as physically and health education, which in turn as a score to your exam or to be included to your CA.

At some point it was actually boring because then I didn't have much love and passion for balling but when I kept involving myself with other people the more I developed interest and passion towards football, before to my SEC school where it then turned to a routine and a thing of most do to every who must participate in sporting activity as inter-class (competition among the 6 classes) sports.

From then began watching football and going to local field to practice with some fellow friends before I chose a famous club due to their unbeatable behavior and action whenever it comes to footballing. Well, this story is so long which I think I don't want to write much about it but it was good having to know about football and since from then my interest about football has never reduced.

It happened when I was still in school. My fav team was the one from my home city. I'd been such a big fan for a couple of years. Then I finished school and some new interests popped up, and I'd stopped visiting the matches of my favourite team, and then years later, I've picked another team to be my favourite. Not only it's not from my home city, it's from a city that I've never been to in my life. But that's the team I'm rooting for at the moment.

Generally speaking, growing up, football was the most famous game in schools, neighborhood, and even churches. Competitions situated on it were enormous in my locality and we also enjoyed watching stars play on TV. And  my favorite as a child was Steven Gerrard, his long shots captivated me to love Liverpool club. I remember making sketches of him and the club logo. Along the line he stopped playing for Liverpool that was when I reduced watching the reds play. Until now, no player has ever gotten me so attached to a club like he did.

I don't see any where that this topic about club fans based and how it comes about being discussed here before so we are goo to go with this topic, in the Gambling discussion boards.
in 2020-2021 football season, I was so into Liverpool as a fans and for that time, what motivated my decision so much was the fact that Liverpool at that time hard player's like Benzima who was doing some nice job in the club, so yes the presence of star player's can make one become a fans of that club.
Ops before I see this part of the post, I have already mentioned the name of the club's, but note that being a fans of a club is, transitional, that means you may support and fan club A this season and in next season you begin to fan club B, human choice changes.

Kick boxing is a go for me. I have been following the Kick boxing TV shows up  since my childhood.
Reasons been that I lived in a ghetto where boys displays various physical and muscular challenges. Which means you must learn how to fight to defend yourself otherwise, your mates would make caricature of you.

Sometimes we set upon a friendly fighting match to crown a hitman as a "Don" in the childly hood society so, we are encouraged to adapt how to fight and defend ourselves at a time of confrontation which may lead of fighting.

So I got interested in the Kick boxing game where I acquires a highily level of fighting skill. I don't mean to say I made it a carrier but I am good to an extend just to defend myself in such challenging times.
I was actually inspired by when I see those professional kick boxers in the TV shows taking punches and absorbing the pains.

I grew up watching football because my dad and his friend would always sit, drink, and watch together. He would carry me in his arms while we watched the game. It became very interesting to me that's when I decided I'll be a footballer. Funny enough I played football while growing up, it became my favorite sport from my elementary studies to the university. What I am saying in essence here is that my childhood influenced me on football sports and also me to choose football as my favorite sport.

I want to believe that our childhood has more influence on us than we grow up. Those who became a fan of some club when they are big was because they really like the way the club plays or the club kept winning trophies, so they choose the team to be their favorite team. Aside from that, we all grew up having a favorite team and choosing our favorite sports.

I grew up into an environment that football is mostly loved by all, and as I grow older, I found out that my Dad loves watching football matches and whenever he is watching, I am with him asking questions till it got to the time that I decided to become a fan to a club but couldn't figure out which of them. At 15, I decided to become a Manchester united fan and that was how everything started till date.
I live football mostly, because I started playing football when I was 8 years and I do enjoy the fun which made me decided to continue playing and watching football matches been played within my environments, and that motivated me the more. It's easy to play football anywhere than any other sport in my country, because you don't necessarily need a big field. A little open space is good to go.

I did check and noticed that this topic have not yet been shared here before not but if I missed it, someone should help point me to it to enable me lock this one.

 I believe that so many of us in this forum love football and we also have our favorite team/club that we so much fan and could do anything to support them, we also have our favorite sports activities. My questions are, how did you end up a fan of your club, what's your best sports activity, how and why did it become your best sports game.

Note, you don't have to mention the name of your team if football is your best sports.

I go first, Football is my best sports game and I became a fan to my club because of their winning streak as of then.
