Bum slapping in my team


Recommended Posts

Without context, it's hard to comment. But you've worded it as slapping your own bum. I guess if it's a new style of celebration over a goal, then yes, it's normal. Much like running around with your shirt over your head.

It's been a part of sports since time immemorial. Watch sports on TV & you will see it.

Slapping your own bum? Sure that's fine, might look funny though. Your college teammates? Yeah I think that's somewhat common although I always thought weird. Is it happening to you over and over, by the same guy or everyone?

Is normal to slap your bum on your sports college team ?

I totally got that you meant about doing it to other people...don't let it bother you that some people can't figure out the nuances when English is not one's first language. :).

 

Traditionally it is a 'normal' or routine way of showing support or a 'thumbs up' to a player or teammate for a given good play or tactic against the opponent...but,

if it makes you uncomfortable on a personal level, then obviously don't do it...and you can of course also ask your teammates and/or coach(es) to not do it to you.

While wearing the team's uniform its totally normal.

 

When in street clothes, that's another story.
