Sportsmanship Project.

I just saw a video about this girl named, Sarah, who had never hit a home run in soft ball. But on day that changed. She hit the home run but sadly as she began to run, she injured her knee. The rules in softball is that none of your teammates can touch you. Kindly, two girls from the opponents team, Liz and Mallary, asked the umpire if they could carry her to all of her bases and so they did just that she the girl make her first home run! It was really sweet of them to do that. They had very good sportsmanship and it'll be cool if every athlete had that.
Sportsmanship is the key to have a good, fair and fun game while playing a sport that you enjoy. If people behaved with bad sportsmanship they will eventually get into fights. Where is the fun in that. If your opponent is behaving bad and being immature. Instead of saying an insulting word, use your skills and make a goal or touch down and win them with victory and pride that you played a fair and square game.
There was a girl in my team that would get mad with the referees if they called a bad call there was actually a time that you talked back to one and ended up getting a yellow card, meaning that we were one player down for 3 minutes. Eventually, we had to maker her understand that no matter what even if it was the worst call ever we just need to have the best sportsmanship and keep our mouths shut. 
Sportsmanship isn’t just in sports it’s also in work, school, and everything else that involves competition. It’s unfortunate that many people envy on others that are doing better than them, if anything we should be proud and supportive that at least some one is making something of themselves.
