What can I do to make School Basketball team?

I am athletic, but I have never made the basketball team for my middle school and its my last year as an 8th grader. I am not a huge scorer. Probally like 8 points a game and my ball handling isn't so spectacular but it's decent and I am guard. What can I do to help make basketball team?What can I do to make School Basketball team?
Play hard, play defense, play solidly, don't rush your offence. Let the game come to you, but don't shy away.
Focus on ball-handling/driving or shooting in open space. Definitely go to open gyms or individual work-outs. Don't be complacent. Make sure the coaches know who you are and know what you're about.



For an example there's usually a hundred freshmen that try out at my school. And there's thirteen that fourteen that make the A team and usually 11 that make the B team. This year seven kids are going to the open-gyms, meetings, etc. Those are the kids that will make it for sure even if they're not great.What can I do to make School Basketball team?
i remember the days in middle school, if you want to make it, play defense and make all your lay ups, left and right, coaches don't care for shots because its middle school, but if you hit a couple your chances increases. im on Jv for my high school team and its try outs were alot harder. Idk if your school does this but my coach made us run 25 suicides during tryouts. Good luck and dont give up
ik wat u mean i really want to make the team for my school this year. Its the first year im old enough to tryout. ive been playing my whole life though. im just worried i wont make the team because im so slow. dont worry u will definetly make the team this yearWhat can I do to make School Basketball team?
Work hard during the tryout, and practice outside of the tryout, go to open gyms etc.

And be vocal at the tryouts, coaches like players who are vocal and play defense.
Depends on how much better other people are than you. Just work on it, practice practice practice....and yeah.
be aggressive. practice things that might throw off your defender. like crossovers and stuff. just practice shooting too.
focus on improving all your weakness and maintain your strong points
