Do you think I'd make the volleyball team?
At tryouts Tuesday we worked on a lot of bumping and footwork. It was a little hard for me on the bumping part because sometimes I don't have a flat platform and it gets all messed up, but I am good with footwork. Wednesday we practiced a sort of drill where there are at least three or four sets of people with six in each group. The other coaches would throw the ball over the net to whoever and they'd have to bump it to target no matter what. I dived for the ball and made it to target :D. One of the coaches commented saying, "That was pretty good," After that we worked on serving and I managed to overhand serve the volleyball over the net. I'd have to say i'm lucky on that because sometimes it goes flying sideways. I always cheer for people no matter what, saying "Nice!" or "Nice try!" or "You can do it!" loudly. We did a scrimmage today, and I had to set the ball to target so they could spike it, which didn't work out. I'd either hit it over the net anyway or not set the ball correctly. I got it once...but I always call for the ball and dive for it no matter what (without kneepads, I should probably buy some!) so I was wondering if any of you (including volleyball coaches!!) would think I could make the team for middle school volleyball???
