He describes one father getting so involved in a rugby match that he intervened in the game, by taking a quick throw-in when the ball went out of play, and a mother who "collapsed in a heap" at a swimming gala, after pacing up and down poolside shouting at her daughter. Mr Blom adds the girl "never excelled at swimming". "Sometimes we view website need to take a step back and not get too emotionally involved," he says. "The real winners in sport - and in life itself - are those who persevere and behave with dignity, whether they win or lose." Mr Blom argues that the one of the main goals of school sport is to "develop good sportsmanship, and blog learning to treat teammates, opponents, coaches and officials with respect". They are themes sport administrators take very seriously. The Football Association's Respect campaign, for example, aims to promote those values throughout the game, and the FA believes negative comments and behaviour by parents can put a child off the game for life. <br>More: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-25668080
