Im going into grade seven, and even though spandex is the most comfortable none of my friends use it.Should I?

Question

So, basically. Nobody I know wears spandex, or knee-socks, or any of those things. I don't know if its because they arent as dedicated as me or because they think its stupid. I dont know if i should use/wear those things, and possibly be made fun of because volleyball is that important to me, or just throw them in the closet and leave them there? Please answer I am really stuck here. Thanks to all the people who answer in advance.

Answer 1

s***w your friends, use whatever YOU like.

Answer 2

its up to you girl. you might start a trend. in high school everybody wears them.

Answer 3

If I had known how comfortable spandex were when I was in 7th grade, I definitely would have worn them! And my socks too. My socks would have saved a lot of floor burns on my legs. But then again, do whatever makes you feel good. If you don't like the idea, then don't do it.

If they make fun of you, you'll just show them who the better player is right XD!

Answer 4

no, just wear normal stuff, i know its stupid but in seventh grade the people everyone thinks are the most important will judge you for EVERYTHING

Answer 5

it's really up to you.

school volleyball is nothing like club, and most of the girls at your school aren't very experianced and might only play at school.

i always wear my socks, knee pads, and ankle braces at school, but i go to a private school, and i know that i wouldn't be allowed to wear spandex, so i have the spandex for club volleyball. haha. but wear whatever you want, as long as you are allowed to wear spandex at school.

and it is not stupid to wear knee high socks for volleyball either.

just do what you tihnk is comfortable (:

Answer 6

wear them at home. they really make you look as if you are putting your body out there which gives people the wrong idea about who you are and gives guys the idea that you are easy. it basically looks like you are naked and a coat of paint is covering you. it is really not classy at all. wear them in the privacy of your own home if you like them.dont wear them in public.

Answer 7

i went through the same thing, because i played club volleyball and no one else on school team did, i decided to wear my spandex and long socks, as first people would comment about it but after a while they realized that only real volleyball players wear spandex lol

i think you should wear your spandex and show them what a realy volleyball player looks like!

Answer 8

i think that u should if u want to

i would totally wear it

i mean I did wen i was in 7th grade n so did everyone else

if you are really into volleyball, then u will look really pro if u wear spandex

Answer 9

i say do what you want, if people tease you about it just say your fat...

Answer 10

You should do what works best for you.  Who knows?  Maybe you will start a trend and all of the others will want to wear spandex like you.  To be honest, if you don't feel confident on the court, you won't play your best.  So, do what you are most comfortable with.

Answer 11

I personally went through that this year with my school volleyball. You should try wearing spandex one game, and if you feel really uncomfortable (not physically, but mentally) wearing it, then just stick to regular gym shorts. But if you do feel comfortable, then you continue wearing it. With my experience, you might get your entire team to start wearing it. :)

Answer 12

uhm I personally play volleyball

and i love it, idc what my friends think

most of my friends think its stupid but there

my REAL friends and they go to ALL of my games

if there your REAL friends they will support you

and not make fun you

for doing something you love.

Answer 13

i would most deffinatly wear the spandex

i am in the 8th and this is my first year and i have already learned that i am in love with them for two reasons

1) they are SO comfy

2) and they save the embarrassment of showing your underwear.

as for the socks i would wear them but i personally love knee highs

and if people judge you then there not even worth your time :)

hope i helped :D

Answer 14

Dont worry what others think. Its more professional to wear the whole deal. I think the socks rock...dont be afraid to do something different! Really good competitive volleyball teams wont accept you at tryouts if you dont look the part. Plus, the spandex is hot and helps attract dudes.
