Good Sportsmanship:
Always Appropriate ~ Always Appreciated!
When I began teaching in the district fifteen years ago, one of the first things I noticed was a sign in the gym at what is now Challenger Intermediate which had evidently been there for quite some time. I don't know if the sign is still there, but the message on it is still appropriate and definitely worth sharing with you. It read—
The spectator never boos a player or official. The spectator appreciates a good play, no matter who makes it. The spectator knows that the school gets the blame or the credit.
Good sportsmanship is something that our administration and coaches stress to all of our athletes. We explain to them that they represent Goddard Middle School and everything they do on the court or playing field is a reflection of our school. Fans, along with athletes and coaches, are also a reflection of our school community. Coaches review sportsmanship expectations with their athletes regularly, and I would like to take time to review expectations for our spectators also.
Parents and fans come to games to show support for our athletes and teams. Please remember that it is bad sportsmanship to yell at a player, coach, or official. You may disagree with a call made by an official or a decision made by one of the coaching staff, but it is unacceptable to yell out and criticize these people during the game. Our coaches and officials do a good job and do not deserve to be publicly
humiliated or criticized.
In addition to practicing good sportsmanship, I would also like to ask parents to supervise their young children during sporting events. We always encourage families to bring younger siblings to middle school games, but these children should watch the game with their parents in the stands. Children should not be roaming around a sports complex or school building unsupervised.
On behalf of Mrs. Hogarth and myself, I would like to invite all parents to come out and enjoy all of the activities Goddard Middle School has to offer.
