Hey I'm 13/F and I love soccer, I really do, it is a passion of mine. But see I never really got to choose soccer. My family kind of chose it for me. I am the youngest of four and all of my siblings have been on the soccer team in highschool and I want to be too. But 37 freshman are trying out... That's just the freshman. I'm kind of close to the coach and hes kind of the one who encouraged to try out but I'm still really stressed and scared. I know I'm good enough and I love soccer but that's so many girls!! My chances aren't great. And I dont even know if soccer is the sport for me but I've never been able to try any others and its too late now. Help me please!
just go to the tryout, do what you do, and we'll just see what happens. it sounds like your a great player! and im sure its the sport for you, considering you called it a "passion".

it seems to me like soccer is your sport..based on the facts that you said you love it and its a passion of yours &+your good at it.
be positive..and try to relax you have every good as chance and equal chance of making it as those girls so try not to feel so threatend I bet each an every other girl is feeling the same way as you! believe it or not.
try and be more confident.
your only 13 its definately not too late to take up another sport along with soccer maybe it is to try out for them this year but dont write anything off theres always next year.
and dont give up on soccer just because your scared you wont make it,if you did that with everything in life you would never get anywhere!
so keep your chin up be possitive and just enjoy playing the sport =]
theres no doubt in my mind that you wont get picked!
good luck =]
