Competition. Competition seems to mean, “to win” and that the most important result of competing is winning. The structure of team sports creates “winners” and “losers”.The word competition derives from the Latin, com, meaning with, and petere, to strive. To strive with others or to strive together. With competition, we become competent. Sports evolved from a desire or need to stay physically fit. There is nothing like signing up for a 10 K event with friends to help you roll out of bed for a 6 a.m. run.What quality are we striving together in today’s team sports? What is our common goal?
