Recreational Sports: Have Fun and Build Lasting Relationships at the Same Time

A recreational sport is any sport activity that you play in during your leisure time for , entertainment and fun.

There are many recreational sports that you can participate in from team sports such as softball and basketball to individual sports such as bowling, tennis and golf.

I played recreational sports for years and have had many unforgettable experiences; I have also met many of my lifelong friends playing sports.

Respect for the game - Display good sportsmanship by playing your favorite sport clean and to the best of your ability. Handle both victory and defeat with grace, style, and dignity. You can’t play being mad. I go out there and have fun. It’s a game, and that’s how you should treat it.
Work Habits – Good work habits will set you apart. For example, golfers work on driving, chipping and putting. Sloppy work habits seem to show up always during the pressure moments. If you work hard you will become a Champ.

Aggressiveness – Be competitive and make an all-out effort to win and succeed, but if you don’t win, it is not the end of the world. Remember to take a loss like a Champ.

Composure – Have a cool head, be calm and in control when an official makes a bad call. Remember that the official is human too, he will make a mistake. Don’t fly off the handle and get angry, it will take the fun out of the sport.

Hustle – Play hard, aggressive and with lots of energy.
You should be honored to have the talent to play your favorite sport. Show respect and be very appreciative to the Lord by showing Him the glory.

Remember, the best part of sports is the opportunity to play.
