Why Kids Should Get A Trophy

Do kids benefit if all they all receive a trophy? Getting a trophy is a way of being part of a team, being involved, and is object you will hold dear too. So all kids benefit off getting a trophy for many reasons. In sports you have placements for how good your team does. Seeing everyone else having a trophy and walking away with nothing is a huge let down. Being given a trophy shows you did something, being involved, and will be treasured for the effort given. So giving a trophy is beneficial to a kid. My brother is on a soccer team every summer with the same teammates. He’s been playing on the same team for 3 years now and he loves his team. My brother also showing off his trophies and awards all the time for whatever game it is. If it’s a just a scrimmage or actual real game, he loves getting trophies. The fact that he gets a trophy is saying that he did something right, so when he brings it home and shows them to people. He talks all about what he did to get that trophy even if he loses he gets one and he enjoys it. One time he didn’t get a trophy and he was upset after his game. It’s not that fact that he got just a trophy for participating, he got one for trying and worked hard. That's what I see in my brother when he talks about his trophy and the love for it. I have two brothers and they are both younger than me. My
second brother loves basketball and he non stops talks about it. He lost in his ymca games a lot with his friends but getting trophies, he understands what they mean. He knows they are just trophies but for participation, but he starts putting them up in his room because he sees them as achievements. Even if he lost he can tell you when the game was and why they lost that game by looking at the trophies. He treasures them and is proud of each and everyone of his trophies. It’s not just because he got a trophy for participation, it’s that he likes looking back and understanding what he did to get the trophy. When I was young and got trophies for participation and just getting one in general was the best thing ever. I remember bringing that trophy to school and showing my friends and not even knowing what I did to get that trophy. I loved being involved, I honestly don't care what sport i played when i was young but playing with my friends and getting a trophy was just amazing. I understand now at my age that those trophies were petite trophies. They didn’t mean anything unless you won in your sport. That wasn’t my same thinking when I was young, I just loved being part of something and a trophy just gave me that warm feeling. So getting a trophy is beneficial to a kid at young age. So, is it beneficial to give kids trophies?
I say yes, and there's so much that goes into this and I could go on forever. All kids should receive a trophy at young age because when they grow up they will never get that feeling when they were a kid, because when you're playing a sport at middle school level and higher all we know is winning and it won’t matter, so if you lose it means nothing. . It helps kids gain confidence in themselves, your being brought together by receiving a trophy, and displays the effort and hard work they they did to receive that trophy. So all kids do gain benefits from receiving a
trophy.
