Sportsmanship Checklist for Kids

My ParenTime My ParenTime

 I abide by the rules of the game.

 I try to avoid arguments.

 I share in the responsibilities of the team.

 I give everyone a chance to play according to the rules.

 I always play fair.

 I follow the directions of the coach.

 I respect the other team's effort.

 I offer encouragement to my teammates.

 I accept the judgment calls of the game officials.

 I end the game smoothly.
Sportsmanship is the ability to:

  • Win without gloating (don't rub it in)

  • Lose without complaining (don't make excuses)

  • Treat your opponent, and the officials, with respect



Sportsmanship tips:

  • If you make a mistake don't pout or make excuses. Learn from it, and be ready to continue to play.

  • If a teammate makes a mistake, encourage, don't criticize.
