Volleyball

I tried out last year and I still have a huge attitude about it. I was pretty much just as good as everyone else, and I had been playing for about three or four years? Well I tried out and the guy cut me because I was too bloody short!!!! I got SOOOOOO mad, I stormed out of that gym glaring at the guy the entire time. Because telling me that other people are more skilled at the sport than I am is one thing, but telling me I am too short?!? Excuse me! Don't go there, I can't help how tall I am! What does he want me to go trapsing out onto the court in stilleto high heels?! I mean geez, I can't help it! :P!

Okay, done ranting. But has anyone else had something like this happen to them? There were quite a few posts in this section so I didn't read ll of them but I glanced and I don't think I saw any so yeah. :smiley:

A friend of mine is really short , too ! But she has no problems...She's fast, technical correct and has the heart to play and there's nothing more you need...So just ignore that stupid guy- he doesn't know what he's speaking of...

i have a coach like that..we were doing this blocking drill and he made me jump in front of everyone. I jumped as high as i possibly could and he made me do it over and over. Then finally he's like, "you can't jump, i'm not trying to critisize you or anything but you can't jump." And i was like what the f**k!!!?? :angry: He totally pissed me off and he still does. I mean i can't help that i can't jump, i mean what am i supposed to do? Jump 3 more inches within that amount of time he says for me to do it?

That's unfair...
I can't jump , either but I've got other qualities....And I'm sure you have them , too!

i just quit my team in the middle of the season..it's a long story but basically the coach was an A$$!!!!!!!GRRRR :angry:
That sucks....I'm sorry that you had to leave...
 
I just used ot play volleyball with m,y family and my family friends but when i tried out for the school team and got in im totally into it. i absolutelly luv spiking d ball...GUD FUN!!!
i also think its rubbish that the coach didnt put Sydne Bristow into his/her team because she was too short. thats a pathetic excuse. my friend who was in my school's volleyball team was the shortest in our team. she ended up getting the best and fairest player award for our team.
 
I can't believe I haven't been in here to tell you guys yet...I made the team and not only that! Im captain :kicking: I hate the other girls on the team they're so rude...but I still love it...i mean...its volleyball! I can alreayd see a huge improvement in my game because of the people im playing with though...its so nice to have a good team! We go to France in 2 weeks! :D Im excited!
 
Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's very good!!!
And the thing with the other girls...maybe ther are just jealous that you're the captian and they don't...
