I have my first college club team practice today. I'm pretty nervous about it b/c I've only played for one year (my senior year in high school) and i haven't really thrown in about a month or two. I also have parsonage-turner syndrome in my left arm, so that's going to affect the way I play. Anyone know of any ways that I can calm myself down and just get out there and play? Btw, if you don't know what parsonage-turner syndrome is, which I'm guessing most of you don't, go google it.

try to take ur mind off everything and just relax...as long as u try ur best then u shouldn't feel bad if u don't do well at first...esp. w/ ur arm...so don't worry too much about it...i'm sure the coach should understand

Clemson huh? I saw them play NC State. I daresay they may have won if they had more than one sub. Good luck man.

Yeah, I play for Clemson. We'll have plenty of subs this year. I think we have upwards of 20 or 25 freshmen coming in
How is your arm doing? If its bad enough to affect your play, Id just tell the team and say "my arms bothering me, I dont know how well I can do today" etc. If theres a coach or cpatains etc. you should at least tell them.
Just treat it like any other game, jsut with new guys.

listen to some of your favorite music before hand, i always find that that relaxes me greatly. just kinda let your mind flow and mellow out. think about the practice or game or dont, whatever helps you calm down and gets you...un-nervous? or a word that means something like that.
