In sports, we have also ethics.

Ethics in sports means playing by the rules and

showing high moral standards. Sport is supposed to be a fair activity with
everyone having an equal opportunity to compete. There are three aspects that
affect ethics in sport which are sportsmanship, gamesmanship and deviance.
Sportsmanship – this involves behavior that shows fair play, respect for
opponents and gracious behavior; whether winning or losing.
• Playing within the rules and regulations.
• Showing concern for others well-being, especially when they are injured
or under stress.
• And show good etiquette.
Gamesmanship – the use of unethical, although often not illegal, methods to
win or gain an advantage in sport.
• Often gamesmanship is encouraged by coaches and sometimes reinforces
the view that gamesmanship is a lever way of undermining your
opponent – and gaining an advantage.
Deviance – this involves human behavior that is against your society’s norms
and values. In sport this is represented by behavior that is outside the sporting
rules, regulations or laws.
• Fighting or assaulting other players/fans.
• Taking of performance-enhancing drugs.
• Intentionally injuring an opponent (through modifying equipment,
breaking the rules etc).
These are the aspects of ethics in sports that serve as a standard of right and
wrong that prescribe what players and coaches ought to do while playing a
certain sport.
