WINNING AND LOSING

Sport provides children with an excellent opportunity to learn how to manage the emotions that are associated with winning and losing. Valuable lessons can be learned about improvement in skill and the value of challenge from both winning and losing. Adult participants in children’s sport play an extremely important role in teaching children how to win and lose graciously. Parents and coaches should consistently teach, and model behaviour that demonstrates to children the importance of self-respect and respect for coaches, officials, teammates and opponents in both victory and defeat. Regardless of the outcome of the competition, children should be encouraged by these adults to always remember that the spirit of competition is valuable not only for the outcome, but also for the process of striving to achieve that outcome in a fair and dignified manner.
