I think you should do what the coach says.  You can sit down with him in a one-on-one conversation and explain your side, but I think you have to abide by his decision even if it is not the one you want.  Otherwise, your coach might see you as a trouble maker and not play you at all.\n\nHe obviously sees something in you that speaks to him about your talent for playing on the line.  Go with the flow, explain your side in a grown up matter, but do what he says.

work on your reactions off the line, quad work outs really help with this. \n\nwork on your swim moves to get past offensive linemen

you're very tall, and your frame will probably fill out later, in the mean time, try playing safety at first...youll have good vision of the field and a great understanding of the ways plays develop...you can always move closer to the line, but if you can play in space, you can easily move up to the line in a year or 2 when you fill out...\n\nas for what to do, lift lift lift...3-4 times a week, and do plyometrics...run cones, work on hip swivel, get your legs udner you, run a lot...distance, sprints, in the hallways grab two towels and a friend, have your friend stand on the towel and put the other around your waist, have your friend lean back and you pull him down the hall back and forth...get a solid wooden crate, jump up on top of it with both feet, then jump off, turn around and do it again...\n\nwork all of your muscles, eat well, no junk foods, hit the weights hard...learn from your coaches, let them use their knowledge to help you...ask them what you can do to get better and do what they tell you...good luck

It sounds like both coaches are allowing you to play, but one is worried about injury, and that is not dumb.  I happen to on the coaches with this one.  Coaches want to win and I'm sure they'd love to have you on team if you can help them win.  During 6th grade youth football, I played Left Tackle and blocked for a Female Quaterback that led our team to the league championship.\n\nIf you have really want to play football you should try out.  I would first weigh all the factors though.  You would almost undoubtedly have more success at other sports, especially at a high school/college/professional level playing for a women's team.  Unless you are exceptionally big or strong for being a female, you will be at a high risk for injury, as is any male would be.  We had a great running back in youth football but he weighed only about 120 pounds and broke his leg- twice.  Also, one position women fair well at is kicker... do you have some talent there?  In high school, a lot of gals can be competitive as a kicker.  Much harder to be competitive at any other position though.\n\nMost girls who play football either play at a pre-high school level or are in a unique situation (either physically huge and athletic for a female or have a strong leg and become a kicker).  Always exceptions though.

I think you should definitely handle this before it becomes negative. This guy obviously has potential to not be a good sport and interfere. To avoid conflict I would explain to him that yelling to the players is distracting, conflicting....etc. Just bull your way through calmly. If he does not understand that is is problem not yours as long as you are a good coach and handle him appropriately that is your only obligation. I wish you the best of luck in the situation. Plus my sons play softball and side line coaching is not allowed. The coaches are good guys they have a unwritten verbal rule "no side line coaching" I sometimes do not go by this. LOL but I just get a look and I know to sit down and shut up. But I still feel welcome and a team parent.

Contact the coach and he/she will help you! It depends on what team.

As a coach, I love it during tryouts when players do as they are instructed.   So PAY ATTENTION.   I also love it when players hustle to and from water breaks.   If they tell you to call the ball (mine!!!!) make sure you say it loudly - volleyball is all about communication and whispering doesnt' cut it!   Be happy to be there - don't chit chat with friends while waiting in line - be on time.......HAVE FUN!

ok just calm down and be yourself...If you are yourself, then you will do fine, but if you think about every little thing that can mess you up, then you will mess up, but if you think positive and be yourself, then you will do great!!! Do what you know then your fine....\n\nTips:\n*Encourage other girls on the team\n*Encourage everyone when you guys are playing a game\n*Do NOT ask the coach constantly about other peoples scores, or your score, wait for the results

Obviously you've got to work out hard and make sure youre in shape for the start of the season. Strength and conditioning are essential for the O line. I'm assuming you already know that however. What I would suggest focusing on is working on your first step or your ability to get off the ball. If you can explode off the ball and get into the d-lineman before he gets to you, you'll dominate consistently. Strength is important as a lineman, but quickness and leverage are more important. In addition to your regular running and work-outs, I would suggest jump roping and jumping squat thrusts (they're like regular squat thrusts only you jump when you come up instead of just standing.) Id also suggest trying this; Find a brick or cement/concrete wall. Take some sidewalk chalk (or anything you can wash off) and draw a line to represent the abdomen/chest area of a d-lineman. Get down in your stance and work on firing off the ball and staying low, shooting up hands first into the wall. Do this over and over to increase your speed and to get used to staying low. OH, be careful not to hurt your wrists when you go into the wall. The last thing you want to do is break your wrist a month before training starts  lol. You may want to also consider wearing what boxers call "bag gloves." They're gloves that cover the back of your hand and your back knuckles so you don't rip your hands up on a heavy bag, or in this case, the wall. Other than that, just give it all you've got. If you go 100% and don't dog it during practice, the coaches will notice, and it will impress them. Hope it helps, and good luck bro.

While there are strategies on and off the field to learn, this is a people business.  Knowing how to communicate to people to motivate them to achieve their best is what you want to focus on.\nDo your homework by finding out where the current and recent past coaches came from.  Find the name of every coach for every team in the NFL over the last 10 years.  Find out what their backgrounds were.  Did they start as players?  Coach college first?  Find the coach(es) that you want to embrace as role models, not for their winning record, but for their ability to get the job.  A background you can relate to and emulate.  Start with coaching right now.  City league football or YMCA or HS asst. coach.  Try private schools since they're not a govt. agency they may be easier to get started with.  There's nothing like doing it to learn to do it.  You have to be able to asst. coach HS before you can asst coach college ball.  You have to understudy a good college head coach before you can be a College Head Coach.  If you can't with a college team, you won't be going to the NFL.  You have to prove yourself so you might as well get started.  Degrees and resume qualifications won't get you the job.\n\nThis is a relationship based business.  Start placing yourself in correct environment to initiate, build and nurture those relationships.  Look on the sidelines and find out who's there and who they work for.  Relentlessly pursue the job that puts you on the sidelines.  Read "The 21 Indisputable Laws of Leadership" by John Maxwell.  Get a hold of the team chaplin and volunteer to help him with anything, making copies, running errands, anything.  Don't take "no" for an answer.  Don't be annoying, be persistant.  Did I mention to refine your people skills?\n\nGo for it!

Learn a new position. A lot of times a coach will see something in a player that will make them better in another position. It is a team sport and changing position might be whats best for the team. Great volleyball players are the ones with soild all around games. One dimensional players usually don't go very far. Discuss it in a positive manner with your coach. Good luck and practice hard.

It really depends on your position.  But juggiling everday with help you with your touch.  Also you can impress your coach by doing anything your coach wants you to do and keeping a good attitude.

Get stats, the teams' record and how far they went in the play-offs.  \nIf you can interview the coach.  Ask the coach questions like: which player is the most improved from last season? What do you think is the strength of the team? (get names and last years stats to back it up)? Ask about any surprise underclassmen. \n\nThe Quarterback and runningback stats are a must.  Also the leading tackler (or sacks) on defense.  For the QB Yards and Touchdowns are most important (if the QB had like 35 TD's and 3 interceptions mention that, that's a good ratio).  For the running back yards and TD's too.  \nMention the under classmen that did well this season (get this from the coach) and be all super excited that they'll be "returning next season to lead the (school mascot name here) to another winning season."  You have my permission to use that line.\n\nIf you only get a paragragh, then only mention the scorers on the team and the positive from the previous season.  But if you get more, be through and a little more detailed.  Ask the coach when in doubt he should be more objective than the captain of the team, who may just want his name in print.

The Plan - Impressing the Players on the Team: Play one-on-one vs. each player on the team. If you're good, than you'll impress your teammates, who will be behind you, and the coach might reconsider.\n\nThe Icing on the Cake - Impressing the Coach: Now play an intimate game of one-on-one with the coach. Show him how you understand how the ball goes into the hole. Show him your "game".  After this, I guarantee that you would start, every game!\n\nBack-up Plan - If the above fails: Now show your teammates that you're a "team player" and display your passing, dribbling, positioning, and versitality.  After this, the guys will bow to you one of their starting positions.

Watch them play, and analyze their game.  Talk to teams that have played them.  Know what their coaches generally call.  Know what makes them have their reputation as unbeatable.\n\nDon't let any thing that your learn discourage you.  Train and practice as hard as you can.  Make your offense and defense incredibly strong.  Get in the mindset that you can win.  That you will win.  Play hard, think harder.
