Answer 1

In all of sport, nerves are your indicator that what you are about to do will actually count for something!...like make the team!
Embrace your nerves and turn it into positive energy!
There is nothing that you can do to become much better than you are right now in a few days, so the best you can do is make sure you play your game! Try to get as many first serves in play and whenever possible take a few chances on your opponents service games when you are playing points!
Since this is a team tryout, just playing your game and doing your best will give your coach a much better indication of what position you will be best at playing.
Also remember that doubles is very important in team tennis. Work on your volleys and overheads!!! While you may not make the team as a singles player, if you show that you understand and are aggressive playing doubles, you could be worth more to your team than you may have thought!
But get used to your nerves...they never go away, so practice tapping in to the energy from your nerves.....It works!

Good luck......go Fed!

Answer 2

im a freshman and i had my first tennis tryouts. i was a bit nervous cause of all of the other players were probably better then me. but i just kept telling myself that i was good at tennis and that i could whoop all of the upperclassmen in tennis anyday. i did some serves, backhands and forehands, net shots. i was confiedent in myself. i think that was wat go me on the team. so i say you should be confident and dont worry about anything but gettin those shots in.

good luck!!!!!!!
