Quest for ultimate All the Right Guard deodo-. pocketseach time they went to rant in the worldcould not the course to practice. lMth eliminate the gallons of per- the decaying efficiency ot the spiration poured out ofthe North Garland tennisicourts, hard working bodies ot the the players-had to travel else- athletes. The muscles where to find suitable courts to strained: the blood pumped: the practice on. Personal dedica- g feet ached: the adrenalin tion was the majorggalffor the activated for one purpose -- individual sport memberand perfection. , Q . , SDOTYS are divided into two categories: individual sports and team sports. Participants in individual sports needed to approach their practices in a different manner than the mem- bers of team sports. Members of a team had to be loyal to their teammates. whereas the individual had only himself to be loyal to. The goli players found their dedication to be costly. The golf players had to pay a fee out of their own Guard Wnce Bonatti works on his shooting form during an afternoon basketballworkout. Basketball players worked out almost every day until the season closed on'February 19, e sometimes it put a dent in the wallet. Senior, Mike Davis, CrCtSS . i country team member, had no problem with a practice field. He had the whole city to use. Vlhth this abundance of space, Davis seemed to have no trouble with his dedication. I have to practice ten times harder and run farther than the actual distance so that the distance in the race will be ten times easier, he related. When l know l have to run this much to win, dedication seems A . to take over and l havefnoprob- l lem in letting up. ' Members of individual sports . worked only as hard as they feltthey needed, soemany par- ticipants found themselves practicingon their own time. A couple of hours after school was not enough. Cross country runners ranlinthelmorningl as well as at night, A great deal 'ofthe gymnastics team members also participated in me , t i Flippers team ofGarland. g Along with practice after l school, the individuals were required to practice every day at the FWDPSYS QYWS- ff . Team sports, which included basketball, football, 'baseball and volleyball, approached i SUCCESS practice from a different angle. Most team sports prac- ticed one to four hours every school day of the year, except tor about six weeks after their respectiveseasons-had ended. Many weekends were also sche- duled for practices. All this practice was directed toward the success of the entireteam. individualism, wasagainst the law in a team sport. lf each member of the team practiced for his or her own success, the team would be divided and the individual goals would clash. Therefore, each athlete of the team had to think of the team as most im- portant. Senior varsity football member, Steve Whitaker expressed, When gl practice, l try to go-hard and give every- thing l have. As long as l do my best, I can't complain about my role on the team. There is competition for post-- etions on the team, but it l get 'beat out ot a position, l'll always cheer on the person who took my place. He provedthat 'hedesenresto start. fig-'Sports practice took up much of an athlete's time, but most were willing and dedicated enough to gothrough the pain arid, pressure. The rewards in an individual sport were more personal than in a team sport, but the dedication had to be as greatas the pressure. Whether the was individual or team, practice was a require- ment for success. suodg ioeid eog IXJ NI
