    Did you join the team on your own will or were you somehow forced into it? It sounds like you don't like it there.

    If you want to stay, you've got to prove you deserve to stay. They key here is practice. Sounds boring, but that's all you need to know right now. Otherwise, you shouldn't hold down the team with that negative attitude.

    If it's the nerves you're worried about, then you need more practice games. Gather some friends and have a friendly match.

    It's normal to have that felling I had it too in the beginning the best thing to do is to play as much ball as u can that will eventual make it so easy for u to be on the court
    good luck its takes a while for it to work so keep on it

  • Why don't you quit the team if it's not really your thing?
