Page 14, Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, May 11, 1983 Winning isn't everything Editor's note: Russ Phillips made a_ very appropriate speech at the Boy Scout Banquet last month. Several peo- ple have mentioned that they would like to see it in print. So here it is: Sportsman: one who abides by a code of fair play in games or in daily practice. Winning: Successful in achievement, especially in competition Just about everyone has taken part in a game of one type or another, whether it be an athletic sport such as baseball, hockey or soccer; or a leisurely game of cards, darts or mono- poly, played to fill some idle time or occupy oneself on a dull day. The basic principle is the same, participation for enjoyment. All too often, per- haps because of the fast pace of our lifestyle, we forget the enjoyment of participation and _ the good company this can bring. Too much empha- sis is placed on winning. Winning at all costs is a common phrase used today, as shown by some of the tragic accidents which result in someone being seriously injur- ed or maimed for life. Today's . professional athlete is a prime exam- ple of this 'winning at all costs' philosophy. These people play injured or resort to questionable tactics because of pres- sure placed on them by fans, family, team mates and team owners. The problem we should look at is, how can we as players, parents, fans or coaches, make the most of your time as a player. What would you, as a player or participant, like to see. The Sports Council or Govern- ment's fitness and Ama- teur Sports Division has now faced the problem and through the Nation- al Coaches Certifica- tion Program has _at- tempted to lead the way in putting enjoyment and participation back into sports, ahead of winning. Through this program, various levels are set out to instruct 345-2307 © RCA XL Colortrack TV © Appliances by Hot Point, Inglis, Jenn Air, Etc. © A complete Stock of Brand Name Furniture BUSINESS DIRECTORY OPEN Tues.-Wed.-Sat. 9 a.m.-5:30 p.m. Thurs.-Fri. 9 a.m.-9 p.m. Closed Mondays CHINRGEN ES: VISA ae ™™» Norther Ontario 2USINESS "Bringing Northern Ontario together" ...at your Laoag now! people and to develop a coach's: positive atti- tude and philosophy with regard to their res- ponsibilities in the de- velopment of the people with whom they are in- volved. This is aimed at you, the hockey, base- ball or soccer player. From this it is hoped that you will carry their ideas over to your own games which you play on your own or amongst friends. This philosophy is much the same as that of your Scouting Organi- zation, assist you in becoming a better person. It is hop- ed you would carry these beliefs with you throughout your life, and that you would be a better person for this. There are, however, several problems which occur. The first and fore- most is that we are not all physically and men- tally the same. This means we grow at var- ious rates, some of you that being to are big or small for your age as compared to a level set some time ago. Look about the room, not all the fathers are the same height or weight and neither are the age groups of the boys here. We can find bigger ones and smaller ones in any age group. We also develop at a different rate. Some of you run faster, jump higher, or can throw farther than your friends who may be the same age as yourself and per- haps taller or shorter. Many of the problems which occur in minor sports which you fellows participate in, stem from this different rate of development. We must accept this different rate of growth and develop- ment-as players, coach- es and parents. It is not possible for everyone to be the best skater, run- ner, batter or kicker. If so, would there really be a game or contest. (Phone 824-2354 24 HOUR FURNACE SERVICE Phil's Burner Service Furnace Installation and Service P.O.

A period of conditioning and skills development must be followed. You are a sportsman because of your involvement and you practice your skills and conditioning along with teamwork to pre- pare for your challenges or games. In Scouting, this teamwork is import- ant also because as a team you work together _ on various projects, when camping or hik- ing. Teamwork or group participation prepares you for later life. Many of your parents work together to make the jobs they do, success- ful and easier. A group of people performing a task is most often easier and quicker than a single individual doing it.
