There is no penalty for knocking down a hurdle when attempting to jump over it. Although, I guess there is one penalty and that is the runner will not be as fast because of hitting the hurdle. But a runner will not be disqualified for knocking down a hurdle.

A 80m hurdle race soon and im scared of falling when jumping over the hurdles also track coach said im good at jumping hurdles but maybe to back out of this race?

If your coach said that you are good at hurdles and you want to participate in the 80m hurdle race, don't back out. If you are good at jumping hurdles and have not fallen before, there is no reason to be scared of fallen while participating in the race.
