Sportsmanship - Following the rules, spirit, and etiquette of athletic competition
Sportsmanship demonstrates both internal and external character. Sportsmanship is both a product of internal traits such as fairness and external traits such as hospitality. Sportsmanship is following the rules of a contest and demonstrating a concern about the spirit and etiquette of how the contest is played or administered. Core value traits include but are not limited to the following:

  • OBEDIENCE: Fulfills instructions and rules.
  • FAIRNESS: Looks at a decision from multiple viewpoints.
  • JUSTICE: Takes personal responsibility to uphold what is pure, right and true.
