I agree 100% participation trophies has to be the worst idea ever. Most of these issues start with delusional overbearing underachieving parents living out their dreams through their children. they put their kids in positions to be mediocre and want them to be rewarded for it. In High School Varsity sports is the highest most competitive level hence tryouts and cuts Leave the inclusiveness to JV and Intermural leagues Our over sensitivity is beginning to ruining our children....There is a place for competitiveness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nolebull813 Posted May 9, 2018 Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 My kids know don't even get in the car with some participation trophy. They have some ribbons, plaques and trophies but only if they won the event. No 4th place ribbons allowed. Unless there was like a million people participating. Lol. One spring years ago my son played spring tackle football and his team only had 12 players. He played every down but they went 2-8. They gave him a trophy after the season and he dumped it in the trash before we got to the car. He was so offended that they would give him a trophy for going 2-8. Its ok to praise your kids for trying even though they don't win but to reward them for showing up is bad parenting/leadership. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you did you have then you just totally reminded me of Zobelles #2 who said almost exactly the same words you just posted. The guys character was played by Henry Rollins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wosinc Posted May 9, 2018 Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 I was at a multiday softball tournament several years ago ( yeah, I know, softball - but they sold beer at the stadiums), and a pretty good team lost the final game to come in second. As they drove off, with most of them sitting in the back of a pickup truck, the second-place trophy went sailing about 20 feet high and smashed on the roadway, accompanied by some choice suggestions as to where to put the pieces and what to do with the tournament in general. Now that’s how to react to a loss, not some “just happy to be here” crap. Those guys were awesome. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
