PV: 8th grade girls volleyball tryouts were nerve-racking
August 27, 2018
My name is Jurnee Clark. I’m in the 8th grade and I tried out for girls volleyball. I have never played volleyball before and I was nervous trying out. During tryout I was kinda on edge and jumpy because I didn’t want to tryout and not make the team. However I observed and watched other people to try to do what I was supposed to. Trying out for volleyball was kind of nerve-racking, I have never played volleyball but I made the team.
What inspired me to play volleyball was my sister. She played volleyball and I wanted to follow in her footsteps, and be as good as she was. I wanted to try volleyball just to keep me busy until basketball season and learn a few thing.Me making the team kinda confused me because I have never played before and I don’t know how to play and how to properly do the sport. But I strive to play right and be one of the best. I feel good about my teammates, they are good players and are good people. They have good work ethic and are hard workers.
I understand that playing volleyball is going to take a lot of hard work and dedication. I did think that I wouldn’t like volleyball but now I do. I push myself during practice to show the coaches what I have and show them what I can offer to the team.
Our team is working hard to be the best and play well. The volleyball team is amazing! All of the players have a lot of work ethic and are competitive. They are great teammates and I am lucky to be playing with them. I’m also lucky to have the coaches to guide me.

Do you think that maybe if you wernt as nervous that you could have had a better chance at making the team? But its understanding that you were nervous and that, that may have caused some of it. Good job, on the article.

Do you think you might have made the team because of how hard you play or how tall you are? Do you feel that not every tries there best and slacks off a bit or do you think everyone always tries their best?
