    Volleyball or soccer, and soccer is called football outside the United States, and I still think rugby is more popular in other countries than American football but both aren't popular in the world.

    At least in my country and in most countries in the world, soccer is the most popular sport, then Volleyball, then swimming, then something with cars and then some fighting sport but not boxing because it's boring to see fighters limited to using only their hands and then depending on the country has other kinds of sports but sports of america aren't popular in the world.

      @BertMacklinFBI exactly, and it actually looks really unhealthy to have that much muscle mass at such a young age. I don't know, it just looks off.

    Boxing, MMA or anything related to fighting and Football.
    I don't want my kids to getting hit on the head so young. I can't stop them from doing it later when adults, but as long as I control their life, I won't let them do any fighting sports, or Football (but I'm considering this, maybe I'll let them, we'll see).

    I wouldn't NOT let my child play any organized sport but I would definitely talk with them if they wanted to play football. I love the sport but the health risks due to physical injury are absolutely undeniable and even worse for young children.

    I would most likely say bodybuilding like @LightsOff but instead of trying to choose which sport to not let them participate in, I would focus more on trying to get them into jiu jitsu/ muay thai

      I would have said that if I even considered it a sport, but there's nothing athletic about posting. It's just a beauty pageant for men.

    I don't think there are any sports I wouldn't let my children do. Each sport is physically demanding and dangerous in their own way. Personally, I was a horse rider growing up, haha, which is far from safe. If I let my kids ride horses, I'd be silly to keep them from doing sports.

    I'll let them do anything but I wouldn't want them playing Football though. After playing it, it certainly was fun and taught me a lot, but it's an absolutely barbaric sport. The guys joke about things like rape, assault, and racist things. The sport itself is just Soooo bad for your body. That's not even counting concussions. It's a terrible thing for a kid.

    If my child was small, I'd be hesitant to let him play football, but i he inherited my size and build, I'd let him. Any other sport, I'd let them, as long as its not too expensive, and won't take up too much of my time (or his/her time). Also, I'd make them choose one sport each year, and they can try a different sport the next year. But i won't let them play two sports in one year.

    If I were going to have a kid (fingers crossed that I don't) then he or she could do whatever they wanted. But they would actually need to try and be good at it. I don't want to be the one in the stands like, "Yeah, see that idiot sitting on his ass out there on the field looking like a derp? Yeah, that's mine." >.< I want to be like, "Damn strait my kid lead this team to victory. Suck it!"

    Tennis because its a mental and physical spirt. You meet the coolest people playing tennis. its technique oriented you learn the basis for many other sports like how your por base comes from your legs I can throw a football well and have good movement and footwork because of tennis I don't like how expensive it is and the snokty environment sometimes though

    There really aren't any but if I absolutely had to pick one it would be gymnastics due to how much it inevitably screws up your joints for life if you keep at it through your teens.

    I destroyed my body with martial arts so it would be hypocritical of me not to let my kid destroy their body playing football or whatever like my parents did me. You can't shelter them forever. :/

    I would let him/her choose what he/she wants to play and not comment on his/her choice, just if that sport is really dangerous.

    If I had a child he/she could play any sport. So long they keep their grades up, not hanging around the wrong crowd, and not doing drugs I'm fine with it.

    I will never let my kid play American football, rugby, and wrestling because it's highly dangerous with all the concussions and wrestling is disturbing.
