Team Spirit in Sports

1.      Team spirit can best be defined as the positive attitude of a group or team that makes the members want to succeed. After all ,without team spirit,how many game is a team actually going to win?

团队精神的最佳定义是一个小姐或团队的积极态度，这种态度能使团队成员渴望获得成功。毕竟，如果缺乏团队精神，一支团队又能获得几次胜利呢？

2.      Team spirit includes many things such as trust, respect and enjoyment of the game among the athletes who are all working toward the common goal of winning.Team spirit is said to increase the chances of winning and having a successful team.While some athletes,and even some coaches do not understand the meaning or importance of team spirit,just ask any record breaking team what their secret was , and they will all tell you it was the team spirit that helped them succeed.

团队精神包括运动员之间的信任，尊重，以及他们对比赛过程享受，这些运动员为赢得比赛的共同目标而努力。人们认为团队精神有助于增加获胜的机会，并有利于组成成功的团队。虽然有些运动员，甚至包括教练并不了解团队精神的意义和重要性，但只要问一问任何打破纪录的团队，他们成功的秘笈是什么，他们会告诉你，正是团队精神帮助他们获胜。

3.      While it is ultimately the respondibility of the coach to build team spirit,the individual athletes must have a desire to win and a willingness to work with one another.

虽然从根本上说团队精神是教练的责任，但是每个运动员必须有夺取胜利的愿望并且愿意和其他队友合作。

4.      Team spirit in sports is also the respondibility of the team captain. For this reson, it is important to choose a team captain who is a natural leader, someone that others won’t mind following.They should be quite capable of promoting team spirit when times get touch,and always possess a positive attitude.

体育比赛中培养团队精神也是团队队长的责任，因此挑选队长尤为重要。队长应该是天生的领袖，所有的队员都愿意听从他的指挥。队长能够在比赛的艰难时刻鼓舞士气，并且始终保持积极的态度。

5.      When a coach or even a team member realises that their team simply doesn’t have any team spirit,there are a few things that can be done to turn negative attitudes into positive ones.There things are best carried out by the coach or team manager,and include explaining to the team that they must all be cooperive with one another.The objective of the team is to win,and this must be the most important thing on the athletes’minds.Excellence should also be strived for and each individual athlete should be responsible for his or her own performance , whether it is good or bad.if just one athlete is not striving for excellence ,the entire team can be upset and lose the game.

当教练乃至队员队员都认为他们的团队缺乏精神的时候，有几个办法能将他们的消极态度和转变成积极态度。这些方法最好由教练或者经理人来执行，其上包括向团队说明他们必须相互配合。团队的目标是获得胜利，这必须是队员们头脑中最重要的一件事。优秀需要靠争取，不管队员的表现是好是坏，他们都要为此负责。如果某个运动员没有为优秀而努力奋斗，那么整个团队都会心烦意乱，导致比赛失败。

6.      Fans, while not under the control of the coaches or team managers, also play a big role in team spirit.For example,if a teamruns out noto the field to realize that only a small group of spectators showed up to wathc the game,well, that alone is enough to kill any teams’spirit.On the other hand, if the team witness a stand full of screaming,cheering fans who want the team to win,this will increase their confidence and hopefully help the team to do their best to win.It is easy to see how team spirit can either make or break a team.

尽管球迷不受教练或者经理人的控制，但是他们在激发团队精神上也起到了重要的作用。例如，如果队员到达比赛场地，发现只有寥寥无及的观众在观看比赛，这种失落感足以打击队伍的士气。相反，如果队员们看到现场观众的尖叫，呐喊，他们希望队伍获胜，这样的情形会增加队员们的信心，有望使队伍全力赴去争取胜利。显而易见，团队精神既能成就一个团队也能击垮一个团队。
