cross country it takes people with speed yet can run far distances but that comes along once you run more and more right now im running like a 7:30 min mile and i barely run any long distances but im pretty fast at running them for my age i guess im 11 why do you want to get to be a pro anyways

but track and field are good especially the field part you can get good at it fast like the tossing stuff you know the discus an spear throw

Pretty much any sport. I’m 15 and I just quit gymnastics which I did for nine years, and now I’ve started mountain bike riding. It’s really fun and can be pretty challenging as to be a good rider you need to master all these different techniques. I’ve had one stack so far but it wasn’t to bad, just got a bit of a graze; it’s also pretty interesting because sometimes you see animals, like birds, wallabies, lizards, and I’ve even seen rabbits and ecidnas. You should try it, and it’s easy to start at any age.
Also some other sports you could try:

Surfing- if you’re close to the beach. My dad started surfing at around 16… I think I might give it a go sometime when the weather warms up. (Winter in Australia) =[

Martial Arts- 16 is a great age to start this. Some places wont even let you in until you’re that age. My dad started it when he was in his eary 30s, and he said he wished he started much earlier.

Rock climbing/bouldering- you can start this at any age, the earlier the better. I know a girl who started about two years ago, she’s like 23 and she loves it. She’s also really buff because of it, haha.

Well they’re my suggestions (just going off mine and people I know’s experience). There are many other sports you could try at 16… you’re heaps young bro! You can start basically anything and become pro at it. Just try something you’re interested in. Good Luck =]

Do a sport you enjoy, forget about going pro, focus on learning the sport and giving a 110 percent everyday. You are at the age to find what you are best at. Then when you go to college you can play those sports. Just to let you know only 1 or 2 players per state is looked at for pro. If you do baseball you can always try out for minor teams at the age of 18.
