Softball!
So.
My two best friends are trying out for the school JV doftball team, we're in highschool obviously. I've always wanted to join a sports team at school so i figure i'd like to give softball a try. The only thing is i've never really played much and the only sports I play are ballet and other types of dance.
Anyone have any tips or something that can help me learn how to and play well?

i have been playing for a year now and i can relate to your situation. Once i started playing i loved it. you have to stay in shape and you really have to like the sport in order to fit in. surely your coach will help you with this. if you really want to then i say join the team and, "Go with the flow." in time you will learn alot of stuff, I DID? i love it now!!

I played softball for 5 years and its really not that hard of a sport to get down, especially because the ball is thrown underhand so its not that fast. I'd say go to practices and see how it goes. You can also buy a softball bat and try swinging it around in your backyard to get the hand of the swing & step motion. & If you wanted to practice your throwing theres something you can buy that you set up in your yard and it has a bouncy net on it, so when you throw the ball it comes back to you & you catch it. Its really good for learning how to catch & throw. Only tips I can give you would be to make sure you step into your swing when you swing, and step into your throw. Practice throwing/batting with your friends until you get better =]

i don't play softball seriously. i play it just for fun and stuff. but since your friends wants to try-out, you should practice together. ask your friends to give you tips and stuff, and try what they're doing. if you're a fast learner, you'll catch up in no time! it's always good to experience what you wanna do. i play volleyball. some tips that are similar for v-ball and softball is pay attention, keep your eye in the ball, and just do your best. you're not gonna be the best out of everybody, but atleast your gonna be the best in your mind!
