You have the terrible feeling in your stomach, try outs are happening now for winter sports. In this case it is field hockey. What can you do to survive tryouts and make the team?

Effort

100% effort is a no brainer, it is so important to hustle and try your hardest. There is never a time when a coach says….”you know, I really don’t want 100% effort today”. Try your hardest and give it all you have!

Take care of your business

Make sure you are responsible for your own gear. This means that you shouldn’t have any jewelry on, have plenty of water and snacks. You should have the right the gear

Stay Positive

Things happen for a reason, if you gave it your all, make the coach have to deal with the tough decision of whether or not you make the team.

In the end, it is sometimes not the best kids now, but who the coach thinks are the best kids to win the future. Good luck and have a great time!!!
