As summer starts to wind down that means that tryouts are right around the corner! What we're going to discuss today is a simple way for you to take care of some of those tryout day nerves; becoming familiar with your surroundings.
When athletes enter new surroundings it can throw them off sometimes simply because of the minor differences. If you have access to the gym that you will be trying out at try to get there a few times before the tryouts. When you get there act as if it is the day of tryouts and do a walk through of what you might be doing that day from beginning to end. If you can do this 2 or 3 times before your tryout you'll be the most prepared person to tryout!
If you only have access to where your tryouts are the day of try to get there early. When you get there early try to visualize yourself doing the routines your going to do. Although you wont be able to get a lot of practice in you will still be able to get used to your surroundings. making it so that you can focus more on dominating your tryout!
Above all always be confident in what you're doing and do it with a smile! Good luck everyone!
"By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail." - Benjamin Franklin
