Thanks Elvis, and 9ballgirl.

Hey Elvis, what is your teams name? Maybe we'll play one another. I would tell you what our team name is, but honestly, I have no idea. Hope you guys do well.

Well we tried, and we had a good time, but we only got to the fourth round. BCA state is in two weeks and with a little dedication I think everyone will be able to fine tune their games and we will do a lot better. I have to admitt, I was impressed by not only my shooting but my team mates performances as well. We just came up against some really good teams and a few of our memebers fell prey to pressure. Oh well, such is life.

Hope you guys did better Elvis!

Hey Parrothead,

I like your attitude!!!! I really do. :wink:

The thing is to keep on keeping on.

Pressure can be a formidable adversary.

Maybe someone can bring a cam-corder to the team practice sessions. If the non-pressure players can get used to seeing themselves play, (( We are our own worst critics)) they won't be so affected by thee opponents watchful eye.

Taping your game will result in a higher level of confidence. Even myself, with my big butt, benefit from taping my game. :roll:

Good luck at BCA.

We also went only 4 rounds. Did have 2 guys win $$ in singles which was good for them. For one, it was his first year playing in Master's and he finished 5th/6th. Looking forward to BCA in two weeks. Parrothead, do you guys go to Midwest in April?

Not this year, but we are rebuilding our team this summer and fall and I think that we will be up to it next year.
