NERVOUS

pedro...It is good to be nervous from time to time. Especially when you are doing something new and it is important to you.

Keep positive thoughts in your head; take a few deep breaths; and, drink some water (especially if your mouth is getting dry).

Good things will happen if you've put the PRIOR effort into your practicing to get ready for the big day!

thanx been there....like i said even though i was very nervous i still did VERY well and probably had one of the better tryouts i have had.....after hitting one of the fence it all went away....and yes....my mouth felt like a desert

It's very common to be nervous. Seems like it didn't effect your performance. I used to be worried when I wasn't nervous!

it didnt really bother me that i was nervous....but it was just wen my legs started shaking is wen it bothered me

You were posting here alot a little while ago looking for a team. Glad to see you found one, did the tryout and made the team. Good luck in your season.

Pedro, When you get a chance, please read this book: The Mental Game of Baseball : A Guide to Peak Performance (Paperback)
by H A Dorfman

pedro,
Good job making the team.

Nervous, It doesn't get any easier as you join the real world of job hunting, choosing a school, getting Married. LOL

That's what's good about Baseball or any Team sport.
It help's you prepare for real life.

You will not be in much more pressure, than a Pitcher on the Mound. That's for sure. the EH

the thing is...i have pitched in state championships and national tournaments...and conference champiships etc.....and....i just love pitching....i can control everything....its my happy place(happy gilmore) lol....its the only place i feel comfortable...and i love having everything put on my shoulders....thats y...i dont get nervous in games when i am hitting because i love having the pressure of beating the pitcher mentally and physically....09dad....is there a specific website to find that book?
