Intimidation


Question Posted Wednesday May 17 2006, 7:05 pm

Hey,
I thought since you said you did track and lacrosse and everything, that I'd ask you about a sports question I need advice on.
So, I started lacrosse recently, and it's my first year. I'm an athletic person, and I pick up on sports really easily, and it's the same way with lacrosse. But the girls on my team have been playing all of their life, and they all know eachother. I get really intimidated by them, so intimidated that I can't play well against them.
How can I fear them less and play better with them around?
I'll rate 5 for good advice..
-Alisha

I understand where you're coming from. I was exactly the same way you were with soccer, and it's a challenge to show people that you're just as good, if not better, than they are.
I suggest that you picture the person as one that you really loathe, and get all of your agressions out, as lacrosse is good for that. It sounds silly when spelled out, but it works. Don't look or acknowledge them when you play, and you'll show them that you are just as tough as they are. Also, in a matter of time, you'll get to know them better and will be able to eventually play as a team. I recommend that you get to talking with them more and you won't be so intimidated that way.
Sorry if this is a bit of bad advice..
Al
