Health: Today, at soccer tryouts, the coach made us run the entire practice....

Today, at soccer tryouts, the coach made us run the entire practice. I ran the whole two hours ahead of everyone. When the tryout ended, I vomited due to dehydration. I didn't make the team. The coach's reasoning: "Only the weak throw up". FML

Today, I was sick and had soccer trials on the same day. At the soccer trials, the coach called me over and told me I was doing really good and to keep it up. I said thanks and vomited on him. FML

Running on empty

Today, at soccer, I repeatedly asked my coach for water as I was feeling light headed. His response every time was, "Five more minutes". Eventually, I got so dehydrated that I passed out. The first thing my coach said when I woke up was, "Why didn't you get some water?" FML

Draining

Today, my swim coach had me swim a 400 meter freestyle. Feeling a little sick near the end, I lifted my head to breathe, then burped, and threw up violently all in the pool. All my team mates screamed horrified running out of the pool, and now they have to drain it. I was told not to come back. FML

Today, I had my first day of soccer tryouts. We began with a two mile run. Trying to be honest for once, I didn't lie about my time. Everyone else did. I thus got the worst score, and had to run it again. FML

Today, I ran a mile for my gym class. While I managed to cut two minutes off my time, a few minutes later I felt dizzy and nauseous, which I thought was because I pushed myself too hard. I collapsed and vomited in front of everyone. Not a single person moved to help me. Not even the teacher. FML

Today, I was wrestling in a tournament. I was in the finals about to win when the kid threw up on me. They thought I'd hit him in the stomach hard enough to make him throw up, so they disqualified me. FML

Today, I made my school's soccer team. I told the coach that since I have diabetes, I might need to sit out occasionally. He promptly erased my name and said he didn't accept "slackers." FML

Today, during gym class, my teacher insisted that everyone should relieve some stress by throwing a basketball at the wall. I wound up and hurled the thing at the wall, it bounced back and hit me in the stomach. I began to vomit uncontrollably. Even my teacher laughed. FML

Today, I went on a run with my crush. She expressed how happy she was to have a decent running partner, because the last one kept complaining he thought he might throw up. We got to the top of the hill and I puked right in front of her. FML

Today, I ran the mile in gym class. I was the second to last person to finish, and I was left panting and feeling faint. When the teacher found out I hadn't come in dead last, he accused me of skipping a lap and is now making me rerun the entire thing. FML

That's such horseshit, appeal to one of the other coaches since there are normally more than one. That actually shows you have the best fitness there, yes I am a fellow football player, carry on.

I used to play basketball very seriously and I would throw up after really tough practices despite being in peak condition. Your coach made a mistake by cutting you and is an insensitive prick.

If the coach is a male punch him in the balls then say only the weak fall.

I feel for you OP. The coach is incompetent if he truly believes what he said. Take it from a soldier, when we go on long runs it's not uncommon for guys to dive off to the side of the road/trail and puke their guts out. No shame, and no perceived weakness. We cheer them on!

This coach is an asshole. How the hell do you evaluate talent by making everyone run? Tryouts are for you to show your skills, not your lunch.

When I was on a soccer team, I only got to play one game. And at practice my friend kept getting in front of me and taking the ball. We were always on the same team. I over heard my coach say that she had to use ever play once or she got in trouble. And I was chosen because she needed a certain amount of people and she chose the extras based on how enthusiastically they cheered. The good soccer players got freakin injured badly to the point where they limped for days and the other team never got carded. This was 4th grade. I can't see soccer getting better the older you get.
