Questioned every day, why is sportsmanship important?
Sportsmanship is important because it won’t only build you into an excellent
athlete, it will control how you act in the future. Being a team player will
decide whether you have a good career and a happy family.
In Physical Education
class, five ways that we can practice sportsmanship are staying alert, being a
team player, not blaming others, respecting the rival teams, and always moving
on to the next challenge life offers whether failure or success. In a sports
game, you must always stay alert. If the ball is passed, observe where it is
being moved. Quickly decide on what to do. As a goalie, are you just going to
let the ball swish into the goal? The same will be true for your future
workplace. If someone needs help, come to their aid. This way you will be
well-respected. We can also work as part of a team effort. In a sports team, we
each have an important part to play. One person can refuse to play his/her
role, and then the whole team may fall apart. Say your future wife needs you to
help her prepare for your child’s birthday. If you have the chance, be sure to
help out. By this, goods sportsmanship is demonstrated. Third, you should not
blame others if something goes awry. If on the field, a ball swishes past the
defenders and goalie, do you blame them? Or do you contemplate on how to
improve next time? In the common workplace, things are bound to go wrong. If the
solution is to turn around and point fingers, you will be the first fired or
laid off. Another way to demonstrate sportsmanship in P.E. is to be respectful
of your rivals. Be respectful of the opposing team, whether in the face of
victory or defeat. If you are a medical doctor. Another doctor in a rival
agency has found (before you) a new miracle medicine. Is quarreling with the
rival going to help? Last but not least, move on to life’s next challenge. Not
every little success is worthy of having to reward yourself. Likewise in
defeat. Move on to life’s next challenge and look at each as an opportunity to
grow. As Robert Kiyosaki always said, “Work to learn, not to earn.”
In
conclusion, sportsmanship will not only make you into a good sportsman but also
decide your life in the future.
