basketball tryouts. i'm trying out for winter basketball at my school in the Fall. i've done basketball out of school.. probably the longest than I've ever done any sport. I don't even remember all the things I did for it. But I'm not amazing.. I mean I'm a good defender since I'm aggressive and not afraid to grab the ball and stuff, but I'm not the best shooter.. and we don't have a basketball net at my house so i can't practice. I mean I havent played basketball since last spring (I did travel bball) since I didn't try out for my school team last year cause I forgot. But do you think I have a chance.. cause I guess I'm good at foul shots and some faraway shots, but I suck at lay ups currently. Well I'm doing soccer right now in gym and I can do basketball maybe if they let me switch.. but I really like soccer too.. so idk. and theres a basketball club but it is mostly guys or should i just suck it and join the club anyway to improve my skills? and other than like.. shooting (what are some tips to be a better shooter btw) what other skills should I practice and what drills should I do.. like should I run a lot (and how much) to get in shape and all that jazz. thanks so much! and i'm in 8th grade btw. and a girl if you didnt realize that already.. lol.

That is a lot of questions. Wow.
If you like basketball and want to try-out, then try-out. You can always play after school at your gym if you don't have a net at your house.
I think if you want to improve your skills for try-outs, then most deffinately join the club. What could it hurt?
Practice all your skills. Talk to the coach that's holding try-outs and ask what all he will be looking at/for. Then go home and practice your weak spots that they will have at the try-outs. And yes, run. A lot. ]
You should be fine for the tryouts:) To practice run with the ball, dribbling it and try to get someone to pass with you. And yes girl join that Club! I know the tallest, prettiest girls who joined the Basketball team and totally got a lot of respect for doing it:) You need to start running and try to practise a little:) Good luch on your tryouts too!!!! ]
