First impressions?

Question

So, I'm going to be a freshman this upcoming school year and I'm going to try out for the frosh volleyball team. Tonight I have to go watch the Varsity volleyball girls do drills and stuff. I don't know how I should act though. I mean I don't want to walk in being shy and I definately don't want to act cocky. Generally, I'm quite loud, but I'm not going to be loud there. First impressions do count, unfortunately. Advice?

Answer 1

Be yourself. Show that you love volleyball, and that you will do your best for the team even if you are not the best volleyball player out there. Show some spirit.

Answer 8

-You should be yourself, (assuming yourself isn't obnoxious or rude :]).

-And pay close attention to the varsity girls because thats why you are there.

-Smile a lot, and have a positive attitude.

-Make sure the coach sees you there and say hi and introduce yourself, it will help at tryouts if he knows who you are already.

-Being loud doesn't always matter, my jv coach likes the girls that are loud, cheering on everyone.

Good luck! =D

Answer 10

Just talk when you feel it's necessary. I mean they are training so you don't want to interrupt them.

If they play scrimmages, cheer them on.

Most of all, watch closely and get tips from them! You will get a lot better! =]
