My idea is to take the word sportsmanship and make believe it is a team. I will make all of the letters in this word the teammates and try to describe how they all work together to make a fantastic team!
Safety would mean that you play fairly and clean by not tripping or pushing when you’re not supposed to. This shows respect for your team and people you are playing against.
P articipate in the game and all practices and always give it all you got! This shows that you care about your teammates and fans.
O pinion means to keep your opinions to yourself about others. If a player is not that good at the sport and if you have nothing nice to say don’t say anything. You could help them by practicing with them and saying “nice try” when they are working hard.
R eady would always be to show up on time and be ready such as have your sneakers tied, do any personal stuff before practice/game starts so you are not late and wasting people’s time.
T eamwork means to work together and have fun together while playing your sport.
S how respect for your teammates/coach/fans and don’t be rude or brag.
M ove yourself and don’t be lazy. If you come to a game or practice always play your best and help out. If your coach needs help cleaning up equipment then don’t just watch…help out!
A sk for help from a coach or a teammate if you don’t know what to do so you don’t waste time.
N ice to others means if somebody messes up then you should not be mean.
S ay nice things to your teammates and the other team such as when you shake their hands after the game.
H elp teammates out if they don’t understand something or if they need extra practice at something that you are good at.
I mprove yourself so you can become a better player so you help your team
P ractice, practice, practice to always be the best you can!
