The Price of Winning
Fourteen-year-old Angus sits on the bench, watching his baseball team play. He’s out of the game because he made a mistake. For his coach, that's unacceptable — mistakes don’t win games. But for most teens, the focus on winning isn’t as important. In a recent study, 90% of teenagers said they would rather play and lose than sit on the sidelines and not play at all. For them, sports are about fun, learning, and being part of a team. However, for many coaches and parents, winning is everything, and they expect perfection from young players.
Unfortunately, this pressure to win drives many kids away from organized sports early on. In competitive events, nearly every action a player makes is examined. Parents and coaches constantly shout instructions, sometimes yelling at kids for errors or missed shots. This intense environment doesn’t let kids make their own choices or learn from their mistakes. Instead of enjoying the game, young players feel watched and judged every second. They lose the freedom to explore their abilities and develop naturally as athletes and individuals.
The emphasis on winning creates deeper issues, too. Many kids feel anxious because they’re only praised for scoring goals or winning races, not for trying hard or improving. Over time, this focus on results can harm their self-confidence, especially if they’re often benched. They start to believe they’re only valuable if they perform perfectly, which can make sports feel like a burden instead of a joy.
Two months later, Angus is back playing baseball — but not on a team. He’s at the park with friends, playing just for fun, and he’s much happier. This raises an important question: How many potential champions will quit sports unless adults change their attitude? For young athletes to thrive, they need support and encouragement, not the pressure to always win.
____________________________
【答案】 In competitive events, young players are always expected perfection by their coaches and parents, which has a negative impact on teenagers. Not only does it cause that teenagers prefer to sit on the sidelines instead of taking a positive in the events, but also the focus on results can also make them feel frustrated. If adults change their attitude, young athletes will build up confidence and inspire potential.
