"Playing a Game IsFun Only When You
Win." Do You Agree or Disagree with
This Statement ?

Some people argue that athletes, while playing games,should adhere to the principle "Friendship first, competition second, "and that that is the true sportsmanship.



Personally, I disagree with this point of view. There is no denying that competitors should be friendly with each other.However, the primary concern of every player, after hard training for a year or two, is to win the game. His/Her sole motivation, either during the training or in the race, is prompted by a looming hope and a prospective championship. Be it a chess game or a competition of weight-lifting or a race of a hundred-metre dash, the case is always true. If he/she wins the game, high rewards, flowers and honour will pile upon him/her. If he/she loses once or twice, he/she will become less courageous for the third time. However, several losses may beat him/her down, and his/her next hattie, if he/she is daring to fight, will probably be a fiasco.



So, in my mind, the fun or happiness of playing a game lies in the athlete＇s ultimate achievement of the goal.We all know Napoleon＇s famous saying that a soldier who does not have the ambition to become a marshal is not a real soldier.I agree that an unambitious athlete is not a real athlete.
