run run run! :-) seriously, going to disney is probably really good, because its nice weather down there, so you can get up early (or at night) and run. also, you walk alot at disney too, so that will help. Do some crunches, wall sits, squatis, sit ups,stretches, and jump rope or just jump in general in the air for a few minutes. also, bring a soccer ball at disney with you, on your spare time, if you have any haha, you can practice your ball handling skills. also, do some jumping jacks, and planks (how to do a plank:
lay flat on the ground on your stomach, then lift your body up in push up position with your fore arms holding you up.)

the best thing to is to shot for it do you best with what you got and don't look back, Walt Disney said that we need to "Keep moving Forward" if we are to ever come out on top.

just remember if you fail then learn something, and pick your self up and try again. you'll come out stonger, Wiser, and More confedent in yourself.

What little more I can say is you sound like u have the stuff, and give it your best shot and be happy with that (what ever it may be).

I hope this helps

I played competitive soccer when I was younger. I played all year round...spring season - tournaments in the summer - fall season - then indoor soccer in the winter. The ball never left my feet. A good way to condition is to find a park that has a good sized hill. Dribble the ball up the hill until it becomes easy. Then when you are at home, dribble the ball everywhere you go. Using your feet to get the ball up and down the stairs is a good way to quickly establish good ball control. Also, you will probably have to make sure that your cardio is up to speed. Try setting a goal and go RUNNING. These techniques are good for crash conditioning before tryouts. Soccer is AWESOME! Have fun and good luck.
