How do I get over my fear of gym class?

I was the same way in school. For me, it was a matter of mind over matter but that can be super hard when you can't seem to get comfortable. I resolved this by faking it until I made it. If you pretend to not care about what others think about you and be confident not only will your abilities slowly improve but it will eventually become the truth. People are attracted to confidence. Good luck. You can do it!
 
I am super shy and I hate embarrassing myself, and well I suck at sports. I think if I wasn't so timid I wouldn't be so bad. You see when the ball's coming towards me, I'm thinking "Oh no, should I get it or would that be weird since I suck? What if I mess up? What if my team gets mad at me? I'm so confused!"
You see I'm in a coed gym class and I feel really uncomfortable because of the guys. When I'm playing with just girls though, it's a whole lot better and I actually enjoy it
During gym now however I just feel so awkward and scared. Plus my crush is there too so that makes me even more scared about the whole thing.
