I never quite know how to act around teams and athletes during the time of a competition and right before it. I believe in just being a spectator and just leaving them alone.
I want to let them focus. There is no useful information that I can give them. Maybe seeing some support would make them do better. Not sure, but it might. Supposedly people are supposed to improve when they know they are being watched.
I don't want to over analyze the situation but I just don't know whats right.
Certain sports are different and have more interaction. Track and Field is one of the harder sports for me to know what to do. I was at UNC Chapel Hill for a Track meet today and saw some athletes I know. I didn't really say anything to them though. I didn't seek them out. I almost blocked them out. I felt like if they wanted to come up to me, they could. I didn't want to go up to them though. Hopefully they don't confuse my lack of interaction as being anti-social, it's more of making sure that I am not a distraction.
Do I say hello or do I not say hello? It's quite awkward sometimes.
