Mains310+ posts

Hey guys, I started another post saying how pumped I am for baseball(I feel everyone here is the same way)well any way in looking for some useful tips for try outs. I feel physicaly ready but mentaly I am scared as hell I wont make it. I feel like I have everything I need(still fine tuneing some things)but don't know what the coaches will see. If you read my last post I've been busy this off season, I really could use some tips to help me feel better.

1. Hustle (it's called a "try" out for a reason)It is also an easy way to standout.

2. stay positive no matter what ... if you air-mail or spike a ball or boot a grounder ...dont slump your shoulders and start dragging...keep your chin up and look for another opportunity.

3. (if the tryout allows for it) try-out at as many positions where you can legitimately help the team. Even volunteering to catch bullpens??

4. Listen intently and be coachable ... any coach will appreciate this.

Beyond fielding your position well and hitting good BP, this is the best start I can give you.
