I thank you, God, for giving me a body
which is specially fit and strong, and for
making me able to use it well.

In my training, help me to never shun the
discipline -which I know that I need- and that I
ought to accept.

In my leisure and in my pleasure, help me
never to allow myself any indulgence which
would make me less fit than I ought to be.

When I compete with others, help me, win or lose,
to play fair. When I win, keep me from
boasting. When I lose, keep me from making excuses.
And help me with good will always to congratulate a
player who beat me.

Help me to live so that I will always have a healthy
body and a healthy mind

This I ask for your love's
sake.

Amen
