High school softball and nervous

Question

I have been playing softball for about 2 years now and i am not on the travel team. I never played fast pitch before but i am very good at slow.

i want to do the high school team but I am so nervous I won't make the team. does everyone make the team or do they pick and choose?

how can i get better and calm my nervous.

Answer 1

Well, I have played softball for about 11 years fast pitch. All i can tell you, is that if you wanna play for the school, your gonna wanna practice fielding balls that come faster at you, and practice hitting balls at about 50 MPH. It depends on you school, Some smaller schools keep all of the girls that try out, and bigger schools pick and choose. To relax, you just need to do your best, give it all you got. If you don't make it, You don't make it.  

Answer 2

depends on your school. some schools have a no cut policy. i played softball too  my freshmen year. but at my school no one gets cut. the worst that they can do is put you on frosh/soph.

Answer 3

first off i play baseball, which is the same thing basically. anyway wat u need to do is practice a lot and get ur confidence up and go into the tryouts thinking that u WILL make the team, and not just that u MIGHT make the team.  it will help u hav a better tryout and hopefully make ur softball team. good luck

Answer 4

my highschool cuts people. ive been playing for 8 years now and i made varsity as a freshman [ now a junior ] . just go out there and try your best !

Answer 5

depends on your chool and your coach. Some teams put only the best on their teams cuz their competitive. If your highschools not competitive then dont worry about but if they r then they will hold tryouts and let u know. Its not a big deal.
