Well, I am a sports freak, but I have started to get out and try new things. I tried color/winter guard, but when my grandfather passed away, I got behind and couldnt catch because I couldnt get anyone to teach me the things that I had missed. So now I am the manager of the track team and I love it... except for one thing. When Im at practice the coach is late, I try and tell them what they should be doing and stuff until the coach gets there. Then one of the girls tried to tell me off and say that you cant have practice unless the coach was there and one of the guys was telling me that he had been there longer and that "we strech as a team", but the rest of the team except maybe two or three, including him, were running. If they strech as a team, shouldnt they run as a team? So, how do I get them to respect me and not be smart ellic to me when I tell something to do, both in a nice way and a mean way? I have talked to the coach about the two times they have disrespected me.
Apparently it's not a team if they aren't respecting you. Being a team includes respecting your fellow team mates. If you have the power to, give them push-ups to do or something. I'd talk to the coach and ask him to tell the team to respect you, and also to tell the team to listen to what you tell them to do if the coach isn't there.
I would try not to let those jerks that are on the team get under your skin too much. Remember, there will ALWAYS in all situations be a moron, someone to hate.
(Rating: 5) Thanx for the help! I guess that I forgot about that, but Ill give it a try even though I have already talked to the coach and see how everything goes!
