Most people in band in our school weren't also in the "official" high school sports as it often interfered (and at our school, you *had* to be in marching band to be in any of the (3) concert bands :blobcatglare:). Of course there was the odd person who would make it work, but I guess my question is: do intramural sports or things like that count, or is that too broad :blobcatthinkingglare: Perhaps we were all band nerds anyway (oh haha also 1/4-1/3 of the students in my school were in band :wojak_pink_laugh:)
I mean, I already know where I would sort out in the "nerds vs jocks" thing :blobcatnerd:, but there were plenty of people in my situation that I would say would fall into the latter category if not some normie middle category.
TLDR: Intramural/ non-"official" sports count or nah?

I managed to make it (sorta) work. I did track all four years of high school, in intermediate school and also in college. Track isn't stereotypically jocky, but I did hurdles and the 4x400 relay rather than distance events, so I wasn't skinny.

In high school I didn't do marching band, but did the "glee" band, for which I played guitar. In college (I went to a military college) I did the bass drum in the marching band to get out of having to do rifle drill. lol And did guitar and singing in a punk rock band on the side.
