    Take a moment to look directly at whoever is yelling, and just stand there with a blank unemotional stare.
    They usually tend to get embarrassed and quiet down.

    My parents come to the game to watch me. They let me know if I am doing something wrong but leave the coaching to my coach. So my answer would be say mom, dad yelling don't help me. It makes me nervous,please let my coach do his or her job

    Ignore them and keep your head in the game. Then after the game have a talk with them. Most of the time there just trying to help you and if it bothers you tell them to stop.

    Sometimes you just can't listen to your parents. A coach I had told me that I can't listen to the parents, I have to listen to the coach and myself. You can always tell your coach to tell your parents to back off. My friend had the same problem, and she would come off the field upset and confused. So the coach went up to the parent and told him that he shouldn't yell at the girl so much, because it just aggravates her. So far, from what I've heard, the parent hasn't said anything else during games.

    desever the yellin? most time it's ya.. but if I NO i done verything I COULD do . I dodn't worrry bout it. parnets alwyas have to put their 2 cents in even if its wrong but my thing is I have a grandmother who coached basketball And she thinks she no's it ALL. but i just talk with my coach and listen to only him... he no's what he wants me to do and i try my best to do it right. So when your parnets or "who-ever" starts yellin Block them out. . like ya do when you shot free throws lol

    what i do is tone them down to a level where yelling sounds like a normal inside voice. that way, i hear them, but don't register the yelling part. it doesn't take too much practice. focus on the words, not the tone.

    my parents don't yell at me during games. i can see that happening more during basketball, not cheering. and no one else really ever yells at me cause i'm the captain, but i say to people getting yelled at, remember they're just trying to help. and take their constructive critism, but also let them know not to push you too hard. :)

    Unless they are your coach, block them out, focus on the game. sometimes i make myself get a song in my head, like a rock song, that gets me pumped. when the adrenaline is rushing and you're focused on the game nothing can stop you!

    my dad is the coach of my team and he is trying to teach us the correct form for hitting throwing ect. so in order for all of us to get to our fullest potential our parents need to release us to the coach so you are only hearing one instructional voice so just tell your parents "hey coach knows what he is doing and tell them you can ask me after the gamee but during it i need my full consentration on the game and you yelling is kinda destacting and i dont like it."
    hope that helps
