Athlete's
Prayer
God, Let
me play well but fairly,
Help me to
learn something that matters once the game is over.
Let
competition make me strong but never hostile.
Always let
me help my opponent up.
Never
catch me rejoicing in the adversity of others.
If I know
victory, allow me to be happy; if I am denied, keep me from envy.
Remind me
that sports are just games.
If through
athletics I set an example, let it be a good one.
Amen
