first off screw what everyone else thinks be your self and be friendly and people wwill come dont go begging for a friend. as far as gym goes some people take it more seriously then it really is so just explain to someone that you dont know how to play and ask for pointers or just make a joke out of it you dont have to be good at sports. if you are you are if not then your not. its not a big deal life goes on.

Well just like the other person said, be yourself! Don't try to act like somebody you're not. If you see somebody that looks like a good friend, go up to them and say Hi. Compliment them on something and just start off on an easy conversation about something simple. For gym, you can do the same thing, find somebody that's in your gym class and make friends with them. Then if you dont understand, you can ask that friend. If you can't make friends in gym, talk to the gym teacher about what you have to do.

I hope I helped!

I was in a situation just like yours last year. The key to meeting new people is to be YOURSELF.
Meeting new people should come naturally. If you see someone sitting alone looking bored, just come up to them, introduce yourself and start off a conversation. You'd be surprised how well that actually works out.

As for gym, don't worry. I'm sure the teacher will explain everything you have to do.
