  1. Fair Play Begin the game … You are an elite soccer player in the English premier league, one of the most prestigious leagues in the world. You start the game poorly and as the match progresses things have the potential to go from bad to worse. The choice is yours …

  2. You make an errant pass and your team loses possession. Do you? … Run hard to try and regain possession? Curse at your teammate for not being in the correct position? Stand with your hands on your hips and have a rest?

  3. Nice work! Despite the turnover, your coach, teammates, and the fans appreciate your hard work. Note: In a team environment working hard after making a mistake is normally an expectation that aligns with the team values. Continue playing …

  4. Oh No! You and your teammate are too busy squabbling to notice the opposition players streaming up the field to score a goal. 1-0. Note: Arguing with your teammates during the game is almost always counterproductive to the team goals. It is better to forget the mistake and move on. Continue Playing …

  5. You may be well rested, but your teammates and coach are less than impressed with your blatant disregard for the team’s defensive values. Note: Although being well rested is a good thing, in most team environments there is an expectation that players “clean up their own mistakes.” Continue Playing …

  6. The game continues … You slip over and your opponent gets the ball. What is your next move? … You tackle him from behind and kick his legs out from under him … You chase until you can make a legal tackle and kick the ball away … You lay on the ground and fake and injury so you don’t have to chase …

  7. The referee blows his whistle and races towards you brandishing a yellow card. Do you? … Acknowledge you’re at fault and help up the opposition player? Wave your hands in the air and carry on like a pork chop? Swear at the opposition and push the referee to the ground in a rage?

  8. Nice chase! The ball goes out of play and your coach is extremely happy with your work rate. Continue Playing …

  9. The fans laugh from the crowd as they witness you acting performance worthy of an Oscar. Your coach is by no means impressed. He tells you in no uncertain terms that this is your “last chance.” Note: “Diving” or “Staging” is considered bad sportsmanship and does not align with the “spirit of the game.” Continue Playing …

  10. Great show of sportsmanship. The fans applaud and the illegal tackle is soon forgotten. Continue Playing …

  11. The referee is not impressed by your incoherent babble and disrespectful hand gestures. He warns you that any more of this behavior will warrant a second yellow card and ejection from the game. Note: It is better to acknowledge your mistake than to make a scene and argue with officials. This general idea applies to almost all sports.. Continue Playing …

  12. Oh no! What have you done?! The referee jumps off the ground and reaches for his top pocket. Out comes the red card. Game over. Replay?

  13. You’re having a tough day at the office and opposition supporters know it. A crowd member yells out and vilifies you using some interesting language. Do you? … Ignore the taunt and use it as motivation? Run to the fence and let the supporter know that you’re not his biggest fan either?

  14. You’re still in the game! A crowd member yells out and vilifies you using some interesting language. Do you? … Ignore the taunt and use it as motivation? Run to the fence and let the supporter know that you’re not his biggest fan either?

  15. Oh no! Your coach has had enough of your antics. He calls for a substitution and pulls you out of the game. Game over. Replay?

  16. Good Choice … The taunt motivates you to try and win the game for your team. Continue Playing …

  17. Congratulations! Your extra motivation helps you to go on and score the match winning goal for your team! The final whistle blows and victory is ours! Replay?

  18. The referee sees you over in the crowd and immediately reaches for a red card. You’re a professional footballer, regardless of what the spectators think, you have to keep your cool when in the public eye! Game over. Replay?

  19. Make or break … You’re running down the wing with the ball. An open goal opportunity beckons when a piece of fruit comes flying from the crowd and hits you in the side of the head. Do you? ... Stop and remonstrate with the crowd member? .. Continue running towards goal? …

  20. Congratulations! You have kicked the winning goal for your team. Your teammates surround you and your supporters break out in to rousing applause. You kept your cool and as a result you won the match. Victory is ours! Replay?

  21. Oh no! You stop to argue with the crowd and the opposition takes the ball to the other end of the pitch and scores. Sometimes it is best to be the bigger person and overcome adversity for the sake of the team. Game over. Replay?
