Annoyances of High School Sports


High school sports are what bring the school together to support classmates as they perform their athletic talent. You meet new friends through sports and some even go on to a higher level of competition.  

Coaches are a big part of sports. There are good ones and bad ones. They seem to get more intense and crazy the older you get and especially at the varsity level.  Do you think that they care about the kids? In many cases they are more worried about the game and wanting to win for themselves.  They leave the kids emotions behind and take away what high school sports should be about.  Yeah we want to win but we all want to have that chance to get on the main spotlight and show what we can do.

                Don’t you hate when you have that person on the team that tries to suck up to the coach for some playing time? It is the most annoying thing to all the other players and makes them have a disgusted feeling about those them. Crying to the coach is not the way to play when you are not meant to be in those positions.  You all know who you are and it is looked down upon.

                If you want playing time, ask what you can do to improve your skills. Take the extra step and go out of your range to prove that you are getting better. Throw yourself where you think you will excel the most.  The wrong thing to do is go after one of your friends’ positions to make them mad.  Support your other players and find your role on the team.
