I agree about soccer. You need to run all day, yes...and be agile. Don't know much abt Lacrosse.
What about tennis? I think you need endurance/stamina. Look at the Australian open!

Well, i think tennis has it all. take for example the 1982 Davis Cup Quarterfinal match (which is also the second longest tennis match ever) when John McEnroe defeated Mats Wilander 9-7, 6-2, 15-17, 3-6, 8-6. The match lasted for 6 hours and 32 minutes, 6 hours and 32 minutes of ''Meaning...endurance, strength, agility''....you name it.

I would have to go with Ice Hockey! Those players have to have great balance, agility, endurance and strength! Unlike other sports where they get a lapse of movement, when a player hits the ice he is going non stop! In soccer if the ball is on the other side of the field you will see the guys walking and in basketball you will see guys taking it easy and there is always a stoppage of play and football only really has 16 minutes where there is actual movement. So now that you have the idea there is no other sport that requires all this like Hockey! Plus can you imagin getting hit at 15 mph by a guy who weighs 220 lbs and crushed into the boards!!! And this all takes place on ICE! OUCH!

Well if you want strength and endurance you would want wrestling.
If you want agility and endurance you want soccer.
But for all three you should choose lacrouse because they run through the whole game and use alot of muscle to throw the ball.

SURFING!
Endurance....when it comes to wave-riding!
Strenght...when you are on your board and dominating waves!
Agility...when you are doing tricks..working on your skill!
You don't have to be the GREATEST out there..but by simply loving this sport, what you do, and BELIEVING in yourself while you RESPECT the ocean's wishes...you will BE GREAT!!!
Try it for yourself...because every athlete is different...every sport is different and it means something to the different individuals!
Honestly,

I am biased, I'd have to say runners, especially track and field athletes.................I remember an athlete from Germany, Harold Schmid. He was a world class 400 m hurdler, an open 400 meter runner and a world class 800 meter runner. Totally amazing!!!!!
