Athletes can be good role models because they can show leadership as well as participation and responsibility. They can show leadership by helping teammates and or helping a player on the other team. They also show participation by participating in their sport. Athletes are often very healthy aswell because they train so often which is a good role model to have because being healthy is very important. They show responsibility by trying their best to contribute their part to the team and or country if in the Olympics. Depending on the athletes role there are different good and bad characteristics.

Top sports' people have usually learned many of the following values: They show u 2 never give up Most show good sportsmanship and courtesy They develop self-discipline in order to become good in their field and be valued in the sports; community. Courage, loyalty, friendship, respect for others, honesty - especially with themselves, physical and mental stamina, determination and much sacrifice to achieve as they have Overall, we should be proud of them and their accomplishments
