Recommend me a sport to start in Swansea

I would like to start a new sport. Please give me any recommendations. I'm early 40s and not particularly fit.

As a child I played table tennis but would not return to that as it is not the workout that I would like. I have done netball and rounders as a child, both of which I loved. I occasionally go cycling, running, skiing, and do yoga twice a week.

I would prefer a social sport so that I am relied upon to attend, otherwise I find I am not motivated and I won't go!

I thought football would be a good choice but I am a complete beginner and I cannot find anywhere that would take me...

I live in Swansea, South Wales - by the beach - so water sports are a possibility.

I don't know what is on in Swansea but what about joining a running group. They are really friendly near me. You could restart with a Cto5K if you wanted to, or just join the group and see who is running what, if you are already quite a competent runner.

Though with the sea so near I can't help thinking sailing or sea kayaking might be a more adventurous option ?

Netball? There's loads of clubs.. from proper league to back to netball.

Mumbles Rangers have also just started a ladies football team.
