How can both students and parents show good sportsmanship?

​

  • Model positive attitudes before, during and after the game

  • Emphasize that the point of the competition is for fun, not for winning

  • Encourage and cooperate with teammates

  • Don't applaud when the other team makes a bad play, and do applaud when they make a good play!

  • Don't belittle the umpire or second-guess the coach

  • Don't coach from the sidelines. It will only confuse the players.

  • If your team loses a game, acknowledge the toughness of the other team.
