Of course you're going to crash going off road the first time, and maybe more. But you'll become a much more skilled cyclist because of it. And racing in packs of people on a closed cross courses with those same skills are probably going to cause some falls, but so what? You'll learn. You're on dirt and/or mud with usually very few rocks on cross courses.
Even the best fall during cross.
Hang in there. Your road riding will improve because you're willing to venture into new arenas.
