Do you ever struggle with feeling good enough to play a collegiate sport? Sitting there just wondering will I be good enough to make the team? What if I don’t make the team and all of my dreams are lost?
Maybe you even think something like if I don’t go play the sport at college I won’t be able to go to college... and f I can’t go to college then how am I going to move forward? That can be a lot to think about, especially at such a young age.

These are all questions of doubt and not believing in yourself. However, asking yourself these kinds of questions is pretty common when you are unsure of it in general. I would say definitely sit in peace and ponder these questions.
Go over the doubts you’re having in your mind and conquer them with belief. If you don’t have any belief maybe try and speak with someone who you would take advice from. More often than not someone you would take advice from has nothing but belief in you and your skills!
After questioning, Thinking and going over all of these doubts and conquering them with beliefs my next step would be to go to the University you want to go to. Once you arrive go on that too are you signed up for. Be sure to expressed interest in gaining knowledge on the sport you excelling. However, really enjoy the views, scenery and overall energy you feel while journeying through the amazing campus. Imagine your life for the next however many years at this spot. Think about all the amazing friendships, teammates and classmates that will become forever friends to you and your life!
At this point you may have found the degree of your choice and that you really love relishing in the atmosphere of this place. With these feelings now is the time to let the staff or anyone that works for school know you are ready and interested in the sport and would love to either share your video real, that you could send it over to the coaches or even just meet the team whenever you get a chance!!
The suggestions are of course if you have not already been recruited by the University. However if you have, approach all of this with the same beliefs and enthusiasm. As you don’t even have to worry about setting up a meet and greet with the team. You just get to go all in, be yourself and execute your dreams!!
