Fair play call needs right targets
22-Apr-2013
In the Yorkshire Post, Chris Waters suggests that it is the professionals who need to be reminded about the virtues of fair play rather than the children who were the focus of a recent survey into cheating in sport.
It is all very well telling them they should win and lose graciously. But unless that ethos starts at the top - with the professional sportsmen themselves - it is surely an enterprise doomed to failure. For the simple fact is that children copy what they see on television; they imitate the way their heroes behave.
