The Junior Varsity

football player wants to do is run out of the tunnel with the crowd screaming your name and gear up for a football game. However, I was not a Varsity player during the 2017-17 season. I played only Junior Varsity which was nowhere near the same as Varsity football. I played on Monday nights and only about thirty people would take the time to show up to a Junior Varsity game. Although, one Friday night would change my football career and change my life. I was only a sophomore at the time, so I was still

dilemma regarding an underperforming Varsity Crew team. The Varsity team is consistently losing to the Junior Varsity (JV) team forcing its coach to consider taking drastic actions four days before the National championship. The coach is considering the following three options: switching the Varsity and JV teams, switching individual boat members, or intervening to improve the Varsity team’s performance (Snook & Polzer, 2004). The coach should switch the Varsity and JV teams and

these notions, and became cocky in my possible placement. At 8:12 that day, I saw friends on social media erupt in excitement, having earned their long-awaited spot. Pulling up the newly-posted list, I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw the “Junior Varsity” label attached to my name. The sight left me in tears, locked in my room, bitter towards the world of band. It turned out I wasn’t some special exception. The next day, I dragged myself out of bed to reluctantly face the ten hour day of rehearsal

meet. The boys’ team had 16 members earn points toward their varsity letter while the girls’ team had 13 members earn varsity points. At Tuesday’s meet, participants could receive points for placing fifth or better in each event. Team members from both the track, running events including team relays, and field events, non-running events such as high jump and shot put, earned points for the team. First year team member and junior Sam Nadalin said, “The first meet was a good time to get the nervousness

if I kept on working hard, I could accomplish my dreams. When I became a freshman in high school, I was more than ready to try out for the varsity team because I believed that I had the ability and the dedication required to be a part of the team. In the first day of try outs I performed great. I was taking on juniors and seniors that were part of the varsity team in previous years and I was making them look like nothing. Both the JV

doing it. On the day of tryouts, I was super nervous because I did not want to make the junior varsity team since most of my friends would probably be on varsity. I thought that I would at least try so I could at least make the team next year. I was hoping that the risk would pay off. The scores were now posted, and I made the junior varsity team. I was super upset considering that all of my friends were on varsity. I wanted to quit so bad, but I also made the competition team, and if you quit one

This is especially true with my experiences with Junior Varsity soccer in my sophomore and junior years in high school. Before each of these seasons started, our coaches told us that we would be given as close to equal playing time as they could possibly get during games, and that we would get the attention we needed to improve

“grades” us on our moves and our flexibility that we have, our coach will tell us where she thinks we should be placed for next year’s team, the Varsity team, the Junior Varsity, or the C-Squad, Varsity is for the advanced dancers who can do anything without a problem, junior varsity is made up of dancers who have experience, but they are not at the varsity level yet, and the c-squad is for new dancers or for people who need help with their moves and everything else. This weekend had an unexpected

scene Janis explains to Cady that certain lunch tables belong to certain groups, or cliques. There were junior varsity jocks, varsity jocks, sexually active band geeks, Asian nerds, cool Asians, and I can’t forget to mention the plastics. A crowd is made up of several cliques. Cliques would join membership of a crowd based on stereotype and reputation. An example of a crowd are the populars. The varsity

Enterprise sports editor Guy Dossi spoke with Calaveras’ new junior varsity head coach Doug Clark. They spoke of the difference from going from a varsity assistant coach to a head JV coach, the changes Clark will have to make on game day, and what he misses about coaching varsity. GD: Well Doug, I looked at the schedule earlier during the summer and I saw you were listed at JV head coach and it kind of took me by surprise. You were the varsity defensive coordinator for such a long time, what made you
