A Year in Hockey... I hope. Part Nineteen.

I've signed up for the D4 league at Big Bear as a 'Free Agent'.  I'm really nervous.  At work, I'm able to listen to documentaries, and I've been listening to loads of hockey films.  It doesn't help.  I know that it's a rec league for beginners, not the pros, but like the camps I've been too- I get nervous about really screwing up.  I've never been much of a team sports guy.  The two sports I've excelled at are sports that require individual efforts- track and fencing.  In track I was a sprinter and ran the 100 and 200 meters.  I was a part of relays, but once the hand offs are done, it's up to the individual runner.  In fencing, it's always one on one.  I'm a classic introvert, and don't make friends easily.  I'm not good at locker room banter.  I've done ok in the camps, but I'm worried it'll be different being part of a team- something I've not done since I was about 12.  Here we go...
