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

Harsh

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

Run home

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.

You don't want to be on that team anyways, the coach is probably one of those pyscho for when you lose it's 6 hr practices for your team.

I play soccer too , and at first (during try-outs) and even during conditioning I found myself throwing up. Just means your pushing yourself, luckily my coach wasn't a douche and could see our hard work for what it was. Maybe tryout for a different team? Better luck next time!

Ipecac in the team's water, ipecac and ex-lax in the coach's drink. Problem solved... or petty justice, whatever makes you happy.

Interesting because throwing up after intense work outs is a sign you worked yourself past your limits. OP, you did your best.

So glad he cares about your health. But if you're on here I'm glad you didn't move on to heat stroke. Keep up with the dedication OP and hope you make it next time

Honestly you don't really want to be under a coach who thinks that of their players anyways. In the end, if you ever had a severe problem come up as needed some understand, he'd not only deny you the sympathy you deserve, but from the sounds of it, also kick you off the team. That in the end would be more frustrating than what he said to you before. I'm really sorry you didn't make the team though, cuz it's probably something you love to do. So just keep practicing and maybe you'll get a new coach who is actually understanding and acknowledges effort.

Talk to his boss about basic safety. The coach put your health at risk! And get yourself some pedialyte or even Gatorade. Go to an ER if you have to.

That sucks OP but honestly, do you really want to join a team with such a dick as a coach? Chances are he is going to ruin all the fun of being part of it by being a Captain Herbert Sobel wannabe... Maybe try another team.

this man above my comment is right. You know, for someone that is from places that call it football instead of soccer, if you are going to argue a point, you need to know your crap. OP does not deserve this simply because you are a douche. Go stick a handegg up your arse and learn some tact.
