Maybe give some free advice about: Sports?
Setter? I take it you play volleyball? Me too, although I play back row, center.
The best thing to do is music. Bring in warm up music and listen to it before the game, and when you're playing, focus on the game, not the players, if that makes sense.
And if you lose- just shake it off, and forget about it. If you're focused about winning/losing, you're gonna lose.
Good luck

Ok, first of all, dont take the last piece of advice given to you in the column, that does not work, especially because i know the intensity your going thru (i play on the jr. national hockey team, and i start too) you cannot just look at it as a game, because its a way of life (at least for me), but all you have to do to calm down is honestly, close your eyes, take deep breathes, envision your goal and how you think you will play in your head, and keep going over it and over it, remind yourself of your fundamentals of your sport, and make sure none of them slip your mind. That way, you are now mentally sound, you have thought thru all the quirks of your game, and thus, are ready to play at an even higher level than even before.

To calm yourself down just think of it this way its just a game and if your team does lose nobody will hate you. I mean every teams loses sometimes! ~kyle~
