Tryouts Continued...

Hello Ladies,

Sorry for my tardiness at tryouts, my situation couldn't be helped. But I'd like to thank you guys for hanging in there. Just a reminder, the tryouts will be separated tomorrow as well as for the remainder of tryouts, with JV at 3:30-4:30, and Varsity at 4:30-5:30.

Some pointers:

-Be aggressive! Although you are trying out to be on a team, remember that during tryouts, the girl next to you is your competition. You must make an effort to stand out and go for the ball, don't worry about what others think of you.

-Don't hesitate. If you're having trouble with a drill or have any questions, don't hesitate to ask us to teach you. Some one-on-one help may be the key to your improvement. It will also show us that you are trainable and are willing to learn if you don't understand.

-Gain confidence. All of you have the potential and the ambition, but you need to have confidence in yourselves. Don't think too much about whether or not you'll mess up, because it's a lot better to try and to mess up, rather than to not try at all. Apprehension and doubt are the first things we recognize in working with you, so try to be confident in all your moves.

-Shake it off! This is probably the most important thing. Don't be defeated just because you messed up on the last play, we all make mistakes. The important thing is that you learn from your mistakes, and improve.

Last but not least, DO YOUR BEST! We will be making a cut by the end of this week, so you need to show us that you have skills to go along with all your potential.

Good Luck!
