From the spectators’point of view,last year’s basketball season for my high school team was nothing short of an embarrassment.And while 0 and 20 is certainly nothing to be proud of,that season had a bigger impact on me than any other,and probably more than any season since.
As a team captain,I knew it probably wouldn’t be the easiest year,but did I ever think we would lose every game?Of course not.Since six of our top players had graduated,it was clear that we were a young team who would struggle.The struggle began earlier than expected,though,as our team’s starting center was suspended for the season,and two key members decided to quit after two weeks.At some point,quitting probably passed through every player’s mind,but,in the end,we all stuck it out,vowing to work even harder.
Then there came a time when even our own coach had given up on us.Personally,I felt like it was no longer worth giving my all.I thought,if even the coach doesn’t believe in us,why should I?But just as my hope began to fade,a teammate called a meeting.He said,“Nobody thinks we’re going to win,and heck,we may not,but,as teammates and friends,we_owe_it_to_each_other_to_give_it_our_all_every_game.”
Sure,it was a little cliché (陈旧的),but it was that moment that taught me how to be a leader.It hit me then that I may have been a captain,but I,like others in my position,certainly didn’t deserve the role.As a leader you can never quit on the team who looks up to you.It is one thing to be named captain and feel great and go through the motions,but it is quite another to be a real captain and make sure everyone works to their potential all the time.
