How can good sportsmanship help in situation outside sports?

Answer 1

If you are a bad sport, then the referee will help the other team and will be against you.

Answer 2

You can get known for your good sportsmanship and develop a positive reputation. In other areas of your life people may be more inclined to respect and trust you, and that can lead to opportunities. You could be seen as being a fair and honest person. You could become a good role model. People may ask your advice or even offer you jobs. When you need to get things done and need help from other people, they may be more willing to do it. You will be likely to have a good disciplined approach to things, which is a positive trait for getting things done. You will have learned a lot of that by being fair to your team mates and opponents. You will see how it works positively in sport and take the same approach in other areas of your life and do well there too. So there are lots of ways it will help.

Answer 3

It's often thought that bad sportmanship shows a complete disregard and a lack of respect for your opponents. It's all about losers and winners being gracious in defeat and good winners depending on the situation. Doing this also encourages younger generations to play sport in a clean and fair way rather than emulating the cheating antics of their 'heroes'.

Answer 4

Because it takes away from the spirit of the game. If there is someone who is being a class A loser, it really brings everyone else down.

Answer 5
