Sure! Here’s a short script you can use to emphasise sportsmanship and how to deal with unfair defeat:
"Sportsmanship and Dealing with Defeat"
"Sport isn’t just about winning – it’s about how we play, how we respect others, and how we handle tough moments. That’s what sportsmanship is all about.
Sometimes, we lose – and sometimes, it feels unfair. Maybe a referee missed a call, or the weather played against us. It’s frustrating. But how we respond in those moments shows our true character.
Instead of lashing out, take a breath. Acknowledge your effort and your team’s. Shake hands. Walk off with your head high. Learn from what happened, and let it drive you to grow – not to blame.
Remember: true champions aren’t just defined by the scoreboard. They’re defined by respect, resilience, and how they carry themselves – in victory and in defeat."
