HI!! Dawn this might be 2 late but just believe in ur self and practise alot i know u can do it!! peace
just think if u don’t go how u would feel
u get one shot to prove your self
ur not less then anyone else
Relax. You’ll do fine. Do some yoga poses. Believe in yourself. Don’t put so much pressure on yourself. It’s not going to help for one thing and it will just seal your fate on the other. It’s better to go in with some confidence, determination, and calm. Best of luck to you.
My sister plays softball and her first practice was a very nervous one also but when she was done she was like that was no big deal. My advice is just go out there and take your time, and most importantly have fun because if you do not you will alway be nervous.
First, I hope you pitch better than you spell.
Second, pitching is all about confidence and mechanics. Take your time and clear your head. Don’t think, just pitch. Also you may want to drill the first batter you see. That will make anyone who bats after them nervous.
last year i played the whole baseball season nervous and i did really bad. this year i have just got into it with a no pressure attitude and i am already doing so much better. i can promise that if you just calm your nerves and relax you will do so much better. the hard thing is doing it, and the only way to do it is to believe in yourself, that may sound cliche but its the only way.
picture everyone naked
My daughter is a pitcher, being nervous is just human. Breath deeply, go to practice and show them what you can do. When u r out there, focus on your goal. Ball to the catchers mitt. Dont worry about not being the best, worry about doing the best you can do. I’ll pray for, I know how your feeling, but I think you will do great. Tell us how it went.
good luck
Do something to work off the tension that you’re building up…try deep breathing excersizes….do a bunch of sprints to warm up…..heck, go into a closet and scream into a pillow until your throat hurts (yes, I’ve known people who have done this).
The point is that the more tension you build the "tighter" you’ll be come practice time. Warming up excersizes are great to shed off some of that tension…it’s always best to be a little tired and sweaty BEFORE you begin to practice.
Is that really something you want to be good at? Anybody can complain and yell and be unpleasant. Why on earth would you want people to see you be ‘good’ at it. What would your grandmother say if she knew. Your coach sounds like he has some real mental problems. After all, if you…………….OOOHHHHH! P. "P!" It’s a "P," not a "B."
ps laughing myself silly here. it’s late.
I’m sorry, this is probably really late. But listen, I was a college pitcher. There is a lot pressure to be the pitcher. But trust me, you can’t get EVERY ball over the plate. Your coach will see your potential. It’s okay Just relax. If you need any pointers, please email me.
