To The Manner Born
Fair Play

Playing with your friends in the evening and on holidays is great fun, till one person spoils it all by fighting or sulking or refusing to play. What is sportsmanship all about?

1. Don’t try to win a game by cheating. This is the worst thing you can do.
2. Wait your turn patiently. Don’t fume and fret if your partner is taking more time.
3. If you lose, take it in the right spirit. Don’t stomp off, saying that you don’t want to play!
4. Cheer the person who wins a game with all your heart. Don’t be envious.
5. If you don’t win, accept it. Don’t start a squabble or assert that you have actually won.
6. If your friend cheats, tell him he is doing wrong, but do it without shouting and shoving.
7. Never use physical violence to get your way in a game. Don’t deliberately aim the ball at vital body parts like the eyes or head. No pushing or kicking!
8. There’s no loss of pride in asking a friend how to play better.
9. Try not to exclude anyone from the game, just because you don’t like the person or don’t know him. The more, the merrier!
