    That one got rained out. I did watch the one today. Varsity wrecked shop, like usual. JV lost but put in A GREAT effort. The teams will end up being different from now on since basketball girls can play now. No one got hurt, and I was really impressed.

    How incredibly sophomoric and rude you are. You have never met me, you have NEVER seen me play, and I suggest you read a little more focused. I didn't belittle the girl who did make it, I just openly wonder why she was chosen when there would be many issues with her on the team. Im good friends...

    I want to say thank you for all the great advice and support I've been getting. Today though, the team had it's first game and I was asking my friend how it went and all that good stuff, and she told me the mute girl hadn't been cut. I was absolutely furious. It's not that she has a speech...

    I'm going to *attempt* to get into summer league for both volleyball and softball, and my friend swore she'd dedicate her summer to helping me get better. My bar none, biggest fear is that the coaches have given up on me. I noticed the softball coaches' interest in me waning as practice went on...

    I won't try to do all three at once. They all have different seasons, but this summer will be split between softball summer league and volleyball summer league. I'm not anticipating looking like an idiot at all. I feel like I'm known as the girl who always tries but never makes anything.

    Yes, but I love all three and it's very commonplace for all to be done in my area. I wouldn't want to choose.

    I could understand all of this if I'd ever made anything before. I tried out for basketball, volleyball, and softball and my answer is "there's always next year!" Eventually, there won't be a next year.

    I was the only new girl to be cut. Their excuse was "you'll get hurt". I understand it's dangerous, but by that logic you should cut all the new girls, not just me. I intend to get amazing and make those morons deeply regret it.

    I didn't make it. I can't say I didn't expect it, but I'm still so disappointed and angry at myself. I think a mute girl who keeps getting hit over and over in the head made it.

    Tommorow's the last day of tryOuts. Today was the only day I didn't cry.

    Ok so I was pretty much a tense, horrible person all of today and most of yesterday. The drills are very fastpaced and confusing all the new girls. Coach really liked my effort and willing to work. I stayed about 45 minutes late on Friday whith a few friends. Today she told me to "Come back on...

    I don't feel like I have a problem throwing actually. Just that one time she was watching. And first would be my second choice. However, I hate the outfield with a fiery purple passion. The only thing worse than being on the outfield would be to not play at all. I'm great at fielding, fly balls...

    I would REALLY rather not have to be in the outfield. iIf I'm not at shortstop, it's not the end of the world though. My main worry is the coach already wrote me off and won't pay any attention to me because I already displayed a lot of errors. Am I just being paranoid, or valid concern?

    So it's not too late to wow my coach/make team? We have huge gaps in varsity, and last year everyone made some team. That coach left, and his daughter, who was the assistant coach at the time is now the head.

    Not sure about Friday, all I know is it's in the morning on Saturday. My biggest fear is I've already been written off because of my terrible throwing experience. She knows I'm new, so she probably has even more of a bias.

    So no one thinks I've messed up by shanking all those throws at warmups? She's seen some less than stellar athletic performances from me, but she knows how badly I want it and that I genuinely want to play softball.

    2 days. I really have no clue what I could possibly offer this team. We played a tournament this weekend and during our warmup drills, I messed up badly, while my coach was watching. I did so poorly my dad texted me to tell me how awful I was at catching/throwing. I was in for a tiny bit and I...

    I've gotten some good advice. But I'm beyond terrified. If I was scared when I posted this, it's nothing like I am now. Tryouts are in four days and I want this so, indescribably bad. Last minute tips?

    I've been casually practicing softball with my friends since September, and in recent weeks the intensity factor has picked up quite a bit. Our high school varsity team is *really* good, but a few with no experience made it on to JV. I'm not terrible. I'm hoping for shortstop or 1st base...
