Today it was my school sports day and it got me thinking about good sportsmanship..If you don't know what good sportsmanship is, it's treating the people you play with or against, as you'd like to be treated yourself. It's also showing respect for the coaches and all officials involved Anyway I'm going to describe how you can demonstrate good sportsmanship.
Support your team:
If you have a team in whatever you might be doing make sure you support it. In our school in each team for sports day we have a mix of children some from year 6 and others from nursery so the older ones have the responsibility of looking after them and congratulating them. Something that works for me is giving your team mates high fives and saying well done.
Be a good loser:
No one likes a bad loser so don't be one.It can be disappointing if you come last in whatever you're doing but just think that it's not the worst thing in the world.Make sure you try to be happy for the winner by congratulating them.
It's OK to be a bit competitive:
Being competitive is fine and actually really natural.Some people say it's bad to be competitive but it's not, it's actually human. The only thing you've got to remember is not to be over competitive because I know that I get pretty frustrated when some people are way too competitive and not very nice with it.
Be a good winner:
If you win you're naturally going to be happy but make sure you don't sound too boastful.Make sure you congratulate everyone in your competition.
Remember the official's decision is final and needs to be respected even if it is disappointing!They may get it wrong sometimes but they are doing their best like you are!

ReplyDeleteSportsmanship is often forgotten about, but really ought to be considered within everyday life.
I no longer do sports day at school, as the only people who do it now are those aged below thirteen, and those who do GCSE PE. That's really quite a good thing for me, because I'm the sort of person who becomes out of breath from simply walking up a flight of stairs!
