Like playing with my own team, i dont care, but just thinking about playing with other people scare me. i think im okay with playing with my team bc they all know i tore it, i have a knee brace, and it stands out.. its pink.. lol. but im just scared that some other person on the other team will hurt me, you know?.. my team is easy around me, makes sure im okay when i fall, but we're going to camp, and its like a camp with really good schools going, rough, physical teams. how can i get over being scared?.. i;ll be in the 11th grade and im playing varsity next year, i didnt this year bc of my knee,i was suppose to, but i got hurt. so i dont wanna suck bc im scared, im like that. any ideas how to be "not scared" of getting hurt again??.. sorry so looong, but please help!!<3

Maybe give some free advice about: Injuries?
There really is no way to "not be scared" unless you just face it. If you use a brace, and a physician has cleared you to play, you should be fine. There is no way you can be succesful at any sport if you allow yourself to have fear, especially fear of injury. You have to just play on it, and you will in time feel more comfortable with it.
