The taboo subject!

How big a part of your team bonding is the showers?!

My side has got a bit of rep now for bringing our wireless speakers for our music, having a big drink and sing in the shower.  Always a good laugh, not at all stiff...!

I think it's a massive part of the social side to any sports team. Always have the best banter in the cricket season though. Have to be quite rough skinned in ours though. Lots of widgey talk and urine activity. I'm sure it's the same for everyone.  It takes some getting used to as a young lad playing senior cricket but after the initial shock (and awe) it's just a place for the comedians of the club to shine and we always spend a long time in there with some music blasting out

We have a load of Rugby boys who play for our club, so I'll leave a lot of the antics to your imagination.

The mental image I have that I wish I didn't in the showers involved an individual on his back, legs behind his ears playing his own version of conkers.  It still haunts my dreams...!

The dressing room as a whole is a great place to be - loads of banter, tunes, sharp humour - everything you expect from a group of lads who get on great.  Sometimes more fun than the actual cricket!

Just got to get one guy to stop putting his George Ezra CD on a loop...

Its a bit mixed these days, 10 years ago it was a big thing and quite salty at times but we've had a move to a younger player base and some of them don't shower so it's lost it's edge.  Like the idea of the speakers though, might get something sorted!

Homosexuality?

Homosexuality?

As long as there's no eye contact, no kissing and you only use the tip, shower time antics aren't gay!

[SOULMAN1012]

At my previous club it was quite common for a couple of us to pull up a plastic chair and sit in the showers for ages chatting and ripping the piss out of each other for whatever reason, basically the normal stuff always had speakers bleating music from our changing room and general lad like behaviour. One of the reasons I play sport of the banter of a dressing room win or lose the banter never stops.

1st rule of the jungle... If you get it hard you're getting it.

Homosexuality?

Nope, it just seems that egg chasers are very fond of their moving parts.  It's almost like that young boy's age of discovery never really leaves them...

Pardon?

I've just realised what a bloody awful season I had last year.

They'll bring some 'pathway' out for it I'm sure.. and have some coaching

Its quite common to see our players doing handstands in the showers!

Last season it was quite uncommon to see any of my team-mates have a shower.
