      When we watch the sports match,we often see it happen—tennis players jump over the net to shake hands after a hard match;football players exchange jerseysafter ninety minutes of knocking each other around;even boxers touch gloves at the beginning of each round. Players in every event,from spelling bees to golf,act in this way. It’s all part of sportsmanship ,a great tradition in sports and competition. It means playing and being calm all through the match.
