It could be due to the sports and the strenuous physical activity. I had an eating disorder when I was younger (Anorexia... I had it in middle school), and that made my period delay and really crazy. I only get it every few months but it's really heavy which is not fun at all.
Anyway, I saw my doctor after it skipped a few months the first time and she said it's normal for your period to skip a lot the first 1-2 years. Although, if it skips more than like 4-5 months you should probably see your doctor to make sure everything is okay.
There are complications other than pregnancy that can cause this. It's probably got something to do with sports. I also played soccer for a few years and the constant excercise and such had a big effect.
You may want to make a doctors appointment just to make sure everything is okay. Don't stress too much, that can also delay it. (Wow, being a girl really bites sometimes, huh?).

Well, as a teen, your cycle is not regulated, for starters. Heavy exercise and such can effect it.
It never hurts to be seen by your doctor. It is best to get into the habit of having yearly pelvic exams anyhow.
