OKay I have played basketball for a long time and loved it since 1st grade.

Up untill 4th grade I was the best on the team, when I switched schools basketball wasn't that important to me because I was worried about making new friends. so as a result I got worse at basketball from not being focused and not practicing as much as I needed.

Over the past couple years I hated basketball, I hated not being a starter and not one of the best players. So I really started to stink at basketball.

Summer practices for varsity (my first year in varsity) started last Thursday. I went and hated it. My friend and I skipped today, because I thought my parents forgot about practice.. but then didn't. (Let's just say Mom & Dad aren't too happy with me now) But it's one practice and it's not like we were walking the streets 7-9 PM (practice was 7-9). We were in my backyard swimming.

So my mom asked if I wanted to quit and I said "Maybe." But now My mom won't let me go to the Sports Banquet (which is 7 months away). THe sports banquet is the BIGGEST thing at my school. Everyone goes, even if they do not play a sport. And my friend said she would take me there and I said I would pay for my ticket to go. But noooo. I can't go. It's some of my best friends' last banquet. =( I know I shouldn't be worried about it now but I am..

Thanks for letting me Vent/rant on..

Soo should I quit basketball or play?

if you really truely want to play, that is your decision. but if you don't like basketball anymore then you shouldn't stress yourself over it. i don't understand why your mom would not let you go to the banquet just because you don't want to play anymore. i mean you did make a comitment to the team, but if you don't like playing then you shouldn't be forced to.

do you get what i'm saying? i'm not trying to tell you what to do, i want you to make your own decision and to think about the options. ... so what if you can't go to the banquet? you still have 7 months to hang out with your friends. is one night really that big of a deal for you? if it is then i think you know what to do

i really wish i could give you the right answer but unfortunately i don't know you. but you do seem like a bright girl, so i know you will make the right choice... and don't worry if things go wrong, everything happens for a reason (well so i believe )

Keep on playing. Nobody is perfect. If you try hard you'll beat them too. Play during the summer and by the time school starts you'll be great!
