How do you mitigate the inherent risk of a one-person team?

I'm pretty bad at volleyball but I still want to try out for the team, should I risk it?

  • Well, I know I'll probably be embarassed because I can't "bump" or anything but I really want to try out! I'm in the eigth grade and I think I should join a sports team, it'll be a change from my regular preppy self!

  • Answer:

    definnently try out! your gonna regret it if u dont

the worst thing they can say is "no" right? so why be embarrassed? do the best you can and practice for HS..8th grade is no biggie...if you practice now and learn the basics..maybe you make the freshman team in High school..that is when it matters anyway,,try practicing with the girls who DO make it..that way they can teach you..

Go for It !!! what do you have to lose, and hey you might get in. I didnt get in my school tryouts but people quit and i came in, and i am now one of the key players on the team being the setter.

yes! and here's why. even if your not that great, always give it your best shot. you may be a bad defense player, but a great server. you never know, and you should always try out for your dream and risk it. forget what the other girls said. you should definitely try out, and hey, if you don't make it, ask the coach what i did wrong and work on it!! never give up something that you love! I've been playing for 6 years and i was TERRIBLE!!!! now I'm on the varsity volleyball team at my high school, and I'm only a freshman!!! i know, weird! lol!, but always try fr the things you love and never be a quitter!!! i hope i helped and gave you enough confidence!!!!GO 4 IT!!

If you try it and you don't make it that would be sad but aleast you tried to do something that maybe someone eles can't !!!!!! Or maybe try a differnt team like Swimming, basketball, or anything else you like.
