Yeah but they'd have to get all of that paint out of their fur!

On the other hand, if they weren't, they'd hose the competition, particularly in events like the marathon. Wolves can cruise around 10 km/h and can sprint up to around 50. (That's 7 mph and 35 for my fellow Americans.) A trained werewolf runner could cut in half the mile-in-four-minutes record. (Another reason why it's pointless to try to run away from a werewolf in spite of the panic reflex.) If the various sporting committees ruled that one could play, but couldn't shift while playing, then things might be a little more fair.[/i]

*nods* Because one of the perks of lycanthropy is enhanced regeneration, the sports leagues would most likely qualify lycanthropy as a steroid. The werewolves could probably organize their own leagues if they could put in the time and effort, but beyond that, the only sports they could ever play would be those that relied more on concentration than manpower (like golf or bowling).

But if lycanthropy does pass via the argument lycanthropy doesn't enhance performance so much as it just recovers from danage faster, you called it: they would definitely penalize any player that shifts durring the game.

Highland games might be interesting, like the caber toss and throwing the rocks and all that. I don't think it's as concentration high as bowling or golf, and it's more strength oriented too. As much as I love archery, I think it'd probably too concentration high. Maybe sports like that (archery, golf, bowling, etc.) it would just be rare to see a werewolf playing them. A solution for not puncturingair-filled balls might be claw covers. They make things like that for cats so they have to be declawed. Those stay on for like, 6 weeks though I think. They could always pop off during shifting, but I think they could make special stuff, like nail polish remover or something, that would disolve the glue that holds the cover in place.

Heh, random idea:

Werewolf triathalon:

Part one: human

Part two: Gestalt

Part Three: Wolf

heh...a werewolf would have a hard time playing soccer in wolf form. And a few other sports. Baseball, tennis, ETC.

Nah, it could like AirBud! j/k

Meh,I think the best sport for our furry friends would have to be the almighty role playing game...nah, I'm just kidding! I would think it would have to be find the squirrel, and then hide it again. There is also hacky sackw with the squirrel which Goldenwolf has very accuratly portrayed in one of her her WONDERFUL art works.

Hide and Seek. In the woods. In gestalt or wolf form. That would be a blast!

1st rule...You can't use your nose to sniff for clues.

You're gonna set a pack of werewolves loose in the woods and try to make them follow rules?

Yup. Hide and seek would be boring to a werewolf if you get found so quickly.

Well, what I had in mind was more of a hide and seek plus tag. Go hide, when they're getting close, haul a** and hide somewhere else. Maybe running in circles to confuse the trail. It'd be sorta like a hunt, except you can't eat your prey. If I was a WW, I'd play hide and seek with my pack all the time!

*4 werewolves sitting around looking bored*

werewolf 3- "Hey, I got it!! Lets all play hide and go seek!"

werewolf 2- "Say what?"

werewolf 3 "Sure, why not?"

werewolf 1 "Well, for one thing, there is not to many places to hide in these woods." 2nd, our keen sniffers will make it easy to find each other."

Figarou- "I know. Lets play Duckie tag." "HA!!! TAG!! You're it!!"

The ones that came to mind were:

Caber toss (with a whole tree)

Biathlon: do the cross-country ski part in wolf form, then go to gestalt and shoot a bow. A very big bow with something like 200-pound draw weight.

"Can you imagine Iron Man with werewolves? Iron Wolf!" Do the swim in gestalt, do the bike in human, do the run in wolf.

Also, Capture the Flag would probably be a good game, something competitive, territorial and semi-aggressive.

Hopefully this won't ruffle the hackles of any animal rightists on the board, but bullfighting might be another option. I watched a bullfight once and thought, "The cuadrilla is acting just like a wolf pack. I'll bet the Spaniards got the idea from watching wolf packs take down a large animal." The Minoan style of bullfighting — running at the bull, grabbing the horns and vaulting over his back — would probably be quite diverting to a werewolf, too.
