Responsibility goes hand and hand with sports. If you cannot be a responsible person you will struggle with sports. It many not just from the player side it could very well be from the coaching side. I have had the experience to learn from both the players' side but also from a coach prospective on responsibility. On either side there is a huge part of responsibility.
From being a coach I was taught the responsibility of having people waiting for you to come to practice and be prepared so both your time and their time can be used wisely. There is a lot more responsibility on a coach then on a player I believe. A coach has to have plans for the practice and be considered with the well being of the players. You learn the responsibility of having to look after many other people beside yourself. When being a coach you have to make sure you are aware of where your team is. If you travel then you have to make sure that everyone gets on the bus. If you leave a player you are going to have to deal with some anger parents and who knows what
There are many other things sports has taught me but these are the most important. The ability to do all of it is a mind boggling and can be overwhelming, but the rewards of it are well worth the time. You give a lot but you get back just as much. The things I learned about responsibility I would not have learned elsewhere and when I learned it I didn't even realize I was learning it. So besides having a good time I also learned valuable lessons about responsibility that will make my life easier.
Some other types of responsibility that sports taught me are time management, commitment and being able to balance your activities. If you struggle with any of the above sports will be hard to do. The time management is a big part because you have a time to be at practice and if you are not there then you are breaking your commitment. Being able to balance your activities is only of the hardest things to learn. Sometimes you have to give up some things because of sports. I use to have to give up family vacations because during school breaks we would have tournaments
