Sportsmanship
Sportsmanship is a code of acceptable behaviour for players to abide by in their pursuit of fair play. “Sportsmanship” refers to the set of values and the series of skills driving appropriate behaviour in social situations involving sports, play and competition. We’ve identified six core aspects of sportsmanship to help students identify a clear path to building a healthy online attitude and positive behaviours.

The six aspects of sportsmanship are:
- Team-oriented mindset
- Respect
- Discipline
- Responsibility
- Resilience
- Positive attitude

Our Goals:

Model acceptable and productive online behaviour, allowing students to become conscientious, digital citizens.

Provide a safe and open environment for students with similar interests to form new friendships, learn valuable interpersonal skills – overall promoting social interaction within the club & personal growth.

Use video games as a medium to teach sportsmanship qualities and ASPIRE values to students.

What is League of Legends

League of Legends (LoL) is a five versus five co-operative team game, where players—who choose unique champions with different abilities—are required to work together to capture objectives, outsmart the opposition and win the game. League of Legends taps into competitive and social fundamentals of human nature and, alongside a LoL Club, can be utilised to teach online etiquette and sportsmanship through a relevant mechanism that is already engaging to students.

Your child may already be playing this or other online games. Although student participation and interactions will be controlled and monitored while playing as part of the club at school. This is not the case should they choose to play outside of these times. Students will be taken through a session on how to reduce risk in the online gaming environment and it would be beneficial for you to promote the following with your child:

Only play with people you know in real life.
Do not share personal information online such as what school you go to, where you live etc.
Have strict times for gaming to take place, gaming late at night can have negative health and educational impacts.
Know when your child is gaming.
