Pretty important. I've played sports since 6 or 7 years of age and have played soccer, baseball and volleyball competitively.
I was a semi-decent middle distance runner in high school and play golf weekly now.
I also love to watch sport - rugby league is probably my favourite (yes, I'm going to a game this weekend, and went last weekend). If I can't make it to a game, I'll try to watch on TV or listen to the radio.
My eldest son (who is almost 6) also loves it. I took him to his first cricket game (NSW v QLD at the SCG) this summer - he loved it. When we play backyard cricket he says "I'm Ricky Ponting" (Oz captain), then when he gets another bat "I'm Cameron White" (another Oz player). He also loves car racing, which I can take or leave really. He has a V8 supercar cap which he has displayed in pride of place.
Aussies are sports mad - what did you expect me to say?
