I don't think I'll be good enough for the team.


Question Posted Tuesday January 8 2013, 7:27 pm

Okay, so I get basically 'good' grades at school and everything, but this year I want to try out for the girls' soccer team-even though the coach is sort of rude. The coach doesn't like me, and I'm afraid of her. She says I'm not good enough for the team. And I'm afraid my friends will laugh at me since I think I'm sort of fat, and that they'll say the same.

Well first thing is first , don't let any one tell you that you can't do something OK. You might end up being really good at soccer who knows but it's good u want to play a sport . There's always going to be haters out there and you can't let them destroy your life you need to learn to not care what they think and to just go with the flow . And your so called friends tell them to go jump off a Clift , what type of friends are they to say them things to you . You need to take control of yourself and tell them I don't care what u guys think I am not doing this to impress you or that stupid coach I doing this because I can . And hey playing sport is a good way to keep fit and meet new people friends and to be apart of something fun.

Just remember dont let people tell you that you can't do something , because you can because no one owns you but you yourself .

Here's a thought for you:
Wouldn't you just love to prove that coach wrong?
If you go out there and put heart into your game play, you will be good enough for any team.
And what kind of friends would laugh at you??

Hey!
First of all, I think it's SO good that you're wanting to join the soccer team, that's a sign you putting yourself out there and doing something different. So be proud of yourself for that! Secondly, let me tell you, it's all about attitude. If you know that you're good, or can do good, or are worth it. Act like you know it. Have that attitude of self-belief and confidence. Not in a cocky or arrogant way, but in a way in which it lets your coach see that you're bot backing down, and that you are the type of person to put your all in to it. Soccer isn't just about being good. It's about being a team player, a person with determination and won't go down without a fight. Show them that you're worth it, show them that you have this in the bag. For somebody who isn't even good at playing, they can go far simply based on the fact that they keep getting up every time they fall, keep bouncing back, show that they have the motivation. Just prove them wrong and most importantly, have fun whilst you do it. If you believe you can do it, you can, because nobody knows what you're capable of except you. I wish you good luck, and remember-Go for it! You have nothing to lose!

Nail it!
