Winning or Losing?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version

   A wise man once said, "show me a good loser, and I will show you a loser".

In today's world it's all about winning.  We live in a society where if you don't win then you are forgotten.  From the moment you start competing it’s all about who finishes first.  Should it be any different? I don’t think so. Having been on both sides of the coin, I can honestly say that winning is much more fun than losing.  Having said that; I also realize that at times you have to learn how to lose before you can learn how to win.  It's also important be a good sportsman.  Good sportsmanship makes you a better competitor.  I'm sure I'm stating the obvious, but putting all of your efforts into being the best that you can be will ultimately give you that winning edge.

	Good coaches teach fundamentals, team concept, and develop young players. The winning comes with this.
