MIAA Student Sportsmanship Essay
What is
sportsmanship and how did it affect me in my life? I think Sportsmanship is a
way to
appreciate
ones effort regardless how you differ, or did in the event. For example I play
basketball,
when you and your opponent play to the best to your abilities, if you lose it’s
always nice to hear things like “at least you tried”
or “good job, you did well.” It’s great to hear
because it
makes you feel like you really put your pedal to the metal in a match that you
showed an
outcome you can bare. But if you win or even
lose by a lot, it’s aggravating to hear
things like “
you wasted your time” or “I didn’t try that’s why you won.” It’s annoying to
take in
because it’s
bad sportsmanship, sometimes people can’t live with loosing and sports is a
great
example that’s
why I used a basketball scenario . Sportsmanship changed my life by making me
not feel excluded
when my effort is not a enough to finish my part of the case. Sportsmanship
isn’t just used
for just sports it can be applied in
almost any given situation where the goal is to
succeed well trying your best. To
me sportsmanship has had a few positive but also some rough
effects. I have heard at the end of a game from the opposing team “good game.” The
effects. I have heard at the end of a game from the opposing team “good game.” The
Ironic thing
is when the coaches don’t tell them to, the players decide the game is not important
And they
will leave the seen disregarding the results of the match because they forgot
to
recognize someones hard work. That kind of hurts me, usually when I respect my opponent and
show my Awareness I would hope they too would have the courtesy to tell me how I did.

Nothing is
like saying "what you applied didn’t matter". There is no exception for bad

because even though some people just say something to not seem rude
It can still
affect someone continuously in their life. Occasionally I had team members with

when we
fail and how do I feel after? We all mess up at a point but getting pushed
over
because of a
mistake or bad decision is bad sportsmanship. I feel not so happy when I

feel
good about the way we all treat one another.
