Don't forget An Extremely Goofy Movie for extreme sports too.
Trust me, you may be better off forgetting.

Yes, but that feature has not had any theatrical release, and I was only listing those who have had such.

My own favorite is RUNNING BRAVE from 1983!
I simply hate the Mighty Ducks movies!

The Best would be The Rookie and the worst would be The 6th Man.
As for the ducks, I liked the fist one, but it got kinda old after the 2nd one.

And next year, The Miracle, with Kurt Russell as Herb Brooks, the coach of the 1980 Olympic hockey team, comes to theaters. Though this may now be a Touchstone product, it was originally under the Disney name.

And to actually answer your questions, I've seen
The Program 1993

The Big Green 1995

The Waterboy 1998

(I like Sandler a lot, but this one pretty much stunk.)
Remember the Titans 2000

Tiger Town 1984

Angels in the Outfield 1994

The Rookie 2002

though it's kind of a dull thumb's up
Celtic Pride 1996 (Hollywood Pictures)

(Well, it starts out good, but falls flat. I do own the DVD, for some reason.)
The 6th Man 1997 (Touchstone Pictures) (I've only seen part of this - and it's now so cheap, coupled with the fact that Dwayne Wayne and the director of my beloved classic comedy "Houseguest" collaborated on this makes me want to see the whole thing)
Air Bud 1997 (good)
He Got Game 1998 (Touchstone Pictures) (Eh, something about Spike Lee's movies always rub me the wrong way. This could have been good, but this didn't do it for me.)
Cool Runnings 1993

Simply awesome.
Iron Will 1994

Snow Dogs 2002

Not a big fan.
The Mighty Ducks 1992

D 2: The Mighty Ducks 1994 Pretty much a Mighty Re-dux, but it's still enjoyable)

I've seen eight of them...and one of my surprise favorites was/is The Air Up There.
I expected very little and came away quite pleased.
