What sport should a 17 year old boy who has never played a sport outside of school before play?

Thanks.
I'm thinking Lacrosse or soccer. Any ideas.

Please give name of sport. Why and the equipment needed.

Also, I'm only 5'9" and 118 pounds..

Thank you!

THIS INVOLVES NAVIGATION, that also can be at the ocean or any body of water.

Why not track? That's what I would do. Lacrosse is fun, I've played it a little bit before... and so is soccer. Out of those two, I would chose soccer.

lacrosse sounds good! dont try soccer- its way too competative for someone who hasnt played...lets see.. pretty much all of their lives?! haha. but tennis is good too! sounds girly, but its easy to get good at & its good exercise.
cross countrys always good too!!

soccer is not too competetive, have you played in school?
everyone here plays it lad wise so its a good start and easy to learn
