Sports should help a man to learn fairness, not only in games but also in life. If two teams play game, one team must lose. If a dozen (team) attend an athletic competition, one team will get the most points and all the eleven teams will get (few) points. If a school team comes out last, that is no loss of face.
that team and that school must do is to admit that it (lose). The only intelligent reaction defeat must be: next year we will do our best to come out on top, because from now on we will devote (we) to a stricter course of training under competent instructors.
Lessons (learn) in sports can help us in our dealing with other people. But even more (value) are the lessons learned in extra-curricular activities in school: in speech, dramatic and musical contests, in "house" activities, and, especially, in the student council.
