Sportsmanship : doing the BEST for GOD'S GLORY

   Every February, Taytay United Methodist Christian School celebrates their founding anniversary. This is the most awaited event for the TUMCSians, except from less school works we are able to show our abilities in sports and our knowledge in musical. TUMCSians’ preparations are tough and you can see the eagerness of everyone to win each competition.
     February 15, 2010 the first day of the intramural, as you enter you can see how the students prepare for the upcoming competitions, everyone were dressed by their jerseys according to their assigned color. Mr. and Ms. Intrams was the first followed by the field demo in which every section were given task to do (Cheer Dance, Modern Dance or Ballroom). Cheer dance was assigned to us. Though we were tired from our practices we condition ourselves to win this thing and do it for God’s Glory. J
      

     
      February 16-18, 2010 SPORTSFEST, everyone was so excited and determined to bring home the bacon. I want to participate in sports in fact I included myself in the list of the names of player for Volleyball and Basketball girls, but the competition was so tough, everyone was so eager to win and so I wasn’t able to be a part of the team but I was there to cheer! J
     In every competition especially in sports we don’t have 100% assurance that the sports committee is not bias. At the first part of the game it is not that tough yet, when the semi-finals and championship came you can see how badly they want to win. Those were the time that I noticed that that the committee isn’t being fair. That was just my opinion as the one observing though there were those that was accused cheaters. But then after all you can see the Camaraderie in every team.
     Being a true sport starts from the lowest competitions, and as a competitors we should highly observe sportsmanship. For me this is the first time that before and after the game the players and their classmates offer prayers. We remind each other to do our best for God’s Glory. I think that’s the greatest lesson we have learned to do our very best for God’s Glory and to observe the spirit of sportsmanship.
