1st of all, DONT THINK THAT! My cousin didn't think that she would make it either, and she was a freshman, didnt have her overhand serve, and still made the team in high school! Believe in yourself! If you're nervous, you won't perform at your best!
2nd of all, Try doing something with your friends, maye that can get your mind of volleyball, and maybe about cute boys ot something, lol.
Lastly, If you're that concerned about it, practice more until you think that yes, you will make it, and if I dont, o well, their loss...
Hope I helped!!

Just think about what you have to do to MAKE it. dont worry about what will go wrong, b/c that makes you think that sumthing bad will happen. just concentrate on what you have to do, and everything will go great. Good luck with the tryouts. -PA

Don't be nervous about it, it's just tryouts. You either make it or you don't. If you make it great, if you don't, that's great too. Try again next year and don't lose any sleep over it. Just practice all you can this week, drink lots of water and Gatorade, and everything should be fine. Walk into the gym with your head held up high and be confident in yourself.

Try to do other stuff then just think about volleyball. Like go to the beach hang out with friends even go to the mall. When I'm upset about something or nervous then I hang out with friends mostly.

GL, hope ur on the team!!

vab answered Sunday July 25 2004, 1:46 pm:
The answer to this is to practice.

You need to build your confidence up - you need to convince yourself that you can hang with anybody else on that team, and that you're deserving enough to play. A lot of practice will build your skills, and give you solid proof that you CAN play volleyball.

Best of luck!

Mercy_x_Me answered Sunday July 25 2004, 1:28 pm:
DONT be nervous... nervousness will be an automatic bump off the team.. you need to think positive. Go in there, and try your hardest. What you can do before that is practice like CRAZY... if you have a net use it and practice with a parent, friend, sibling, relative ANYONE who will put in a few hours with you every day. You'll have no reason to be nervous if you are properly prepared. As for right before you go to tryout, calm down, try your hardest, b/c thats all you can do...

ill pray you make the team :-D

Still stuck in a jam?
Send one to my inbox -OR- im x mercy me 14 x

...Best wishes...

Have confidence!! If you believe in yourself and know you are a great volleyball player, the coaches will recognize that! Practice, practice, practice! Try your hardest and if you dont make it, you know you did well. Good luck at tryouts!!
