OK, I really love volleyball. But I'm scared to try out for a team! I'm really good too...?

Question

What if I don't make it?

Answer 1

last year, I tried out not thinking that I would make it and I did make it, try out, the worst thing that can happen is you not make it, but if you don't go up to the coach and nicely ask why you didn't make the team so that you can work on the if you want to try out next year

Answer 2

As I heard on TV once..."Just do it"

Answer 3

if you dont make it. try harder and try out next year and you probably will make it LOTS OF LUCK :D

Answer 4

If your really good, you should have nothing to be afraid of.....and the worst thing that can happen is you dont make it, and you wouldnt be the only person that didnt make it

Answer 5

If you love it and think you are really good then use that confidence in yourself and go for it.  There's absolutely nothing ot loose.  It's not like they are going to take away your first born if you don't make the team.

Answer 6

Go for it. What do you have to lose? If you don't, try doing camps.

Answer 7

you should just try out because you never know if you don't try.  years down the road you might regret not trying.  if you don't make it. it isn't the end the world, you just try again next year.  have confidence in yourself.

Answer 8

even if you don't make it, at least try!! worst that can happen is you discover something you need to work on. good luck!!

Answer 9

Just go for it. I was scared to make my team and i ended up making it!

Answer 10

Answer 11

Then you don't make it. Work harder and go out again next year. If you are really good whats the harm? Don't let your fears ruin living your life to the fullest!

Answer 12

why are u scared.if this is something u love 2 do go for it. dont ever let ur fears hold u back. cuz if u do that wont get u anywhere.believe in yourself and go 4 it !!!!!!!!! good luck

Answer 13

Look, if you don't try - you will always wonder if you could have made it.   Never worry about failing, always try.  You will respect yourself more for trying, then for always being scared too.  

That's what its about - you - pursuing your goals and dreams will make you a stronger person.

Answer 14

my friends tryed out for the middle school volleyball team only they were in 6th grade. the couch didnt want to make some of the 7th grade perents mad by putting them of the team instead of their girls so that means they were better.so i know you can probley do better then girls older then you that try out.

Answer 15

take it from me, if you love the game of volleyball and are really good, try out. chances are that the people you try-out against aren't that great. you'll make it, have your friends come with you to pump you up.

Answer 16

Try out.  If you don't make it, a coach will have seen you and can give you the list of things you need to work on for the next year's tryouts.  

So what if you don't make it the first time out.  Just remember that Michael Jordan didn't make his high school varsity basketball team his junior year.  And this is one of the greatest players to ever play the game of basketball.  I always took inspiration from that.  If you work hard, and try your best, and listen to your coach, they will take that over a person of all talent that knows they are good any day.  The person that knows they are good doesn't grow as a player and doesn't listen to the coaches.

Go for it.  Good luck!!

Answer 17

Answer 18

If you love it then the best thing for you to do is try out! Even if you don't make it, it'll be great practice for next year. I know exactly how you feel though. I'm trying out for a v- ball team that I know I won't make, but I just really love the sport, so after I don't make it, I'll just play club.

Answer 19

I say go for it, cuz for instance, when I had to play with the JV and I never played with them before, I was so scared. But as the game went on, I noticed that it was not that bad. And now I`m the point guard for that team. Don`t let your fears overcome you. Believe in yourself and you can do it. You can make the team. Just focus on yourself. Good luck!

Answer 20

ok i was really scared to try out but i was really good....now i am the best player on the team because i faced my fears and i practiced very hard.

Answer 21

Then you work your butt off to improve your skills to make it next year...ask the coach if you can be a manager, learn the drills, learn the skills, and improve...for next year...

Answer 22

Last year I tried out for my school team. And I am pretty good, but some girl were a little better. So i thought about what i COULD do that the other girls could not do, like serve very good, or set! So think positive Hun!

Answer 23

Hmm, Well before sophomore year I was a huge fatty, but I went out for football, lucky for me there were no cuts, but I didn't know if I could physically handle it, but I pushed through and made it and now I can actually play.

Anyways...about volleyball.  Supposedly at my school the teams are all fcuked up, like coach plays favs. and only lets players on if they went to suymmer camp, but I only heard that from the people who got cut.  

I'd say yea, if you're good go for it. But do know, people who get cut lose major points in the eyes of others, but nobody will say anything about it.

Answer 24

if you dont make the team feel good with your self that you tried and try next year

Answer 25

well if you dont make it oh well try out next year or get on a travel team. and try to get to know the coach that makes your chances great.

good luck

Why would you be scared??????

Answer 27

you'll never know if you don't try.  Wouldn't it suck to look back and say "what if?" more?

Answer 28
