Tryouts FUH REAK OUT!

Question

i just started tryouts on friday, but the night before i went to sleep at 4 cuz i was so excited...yet nervous for tryouts that i couldn't fall asleep! i didnt play my best and my friends think i set good but i dont think i was setting it good that day. anyways i want to be a S/DS because i can pass good and im a good setter (for my age and height. im 13 and 5ft). my coach likes setting better because he thinks it has more control over the ball than bumping it. i can serve the ball over the net, but it barely passes the 10ft line on the opponents side. plus, in tryouts, the coach had 3 nets and put all the 8th graders on one. there were like 10 girls on each side! i was so bunched up and i couldnt make one decent serve because i was all the way at the end of the net, balls were flying everywhere and hitting me, and i had no space. a few days before that, i had tons of space and was serving with vasity girls so there werent balls flying everywhere; i served it over like 90 percent of the time! i need lots of space but i dunno wat to do!

Answer 1

its okay just relax and wait for the two people by you to serve and then you should go! dont worry you just have to relax i am sure you will make it sounds like you are pretty good try gettting a good night sleep and eat breakfast though and always have a good attitude and be kind to everyone!

Answer 2

try to get a spot in the middle of the line, then just block out everything, and really concentrate on the ball, and getting it over. good luck!

Answer 3

in tryouts, dont look to blend in. if someones in your way, ask them to move. if you mean business, you should do whatever you can to get the coach's attention. a great way to stand out is to yell. calling the ball loudest, having spirit adn being a very vocal player has gotten me very far in my volleyball career. being loud shows confidence and coaches dig that
