Im a sophmore now but last year..i freaked out cuz i thought all the girls were gonna make fun of me and not like me. But i LOVE basketball and they were not gonna stop me from playing. When you go to this basketball practice be nice to everyone..have a pleasant face and be open to contructional criticism. Let them kno that you want to be out there..and you want to improve your skills and get better. Also put on your A game..do the very best you can. people will start to realize that you work hard and are a nice person.
ne more questions just ask..i think we can relate to alot of things!
soccer_crazii answered Friday September 16 2005, 8:22 pm: if your games good, why would they make fun of you? at least you have the nerve to try out for the first time. just dont be scared. go in there just to play basketball- NOT to socialize. coaches dont like it when you talk a lot and dont pay attention.
