Don't get me wrong, I am an athlete- I'm in excellent physical shape, I just enjoy working out alone. School sports require much time and accomplish little. Unless you swim- then you get your money's worth. I've decided I'd rather teach piano lessons for good cash (very good cash) than spend 3 hours a day at track practice doing what I can do in half the time.
What does the AF need with swimmers? I am a lifeguard, trained and certified, but that seems like a Navy/Marines deal.
Concerning political campaigns, I do live in the fine (well, sorta) state of New York... and I really want to uproot Hillary...
NCAA sports. My cousin went to the Naval Academy for football; he graduated in 1975 and spent about 10 years in the Navy.
Many colleges will take athletes as "walk-ons"; you just show up at the tryouts. My husband's niece just got on the gymnastics team at George Washington U. this way. But I don't know if that's an option with the academies.
