Blessed are you our God who has brought this team of athletes together.
Thank you for the talents you have bestowed on us and the endurance you have given us to develop our skills.
May we come together today as a team using all we have learned in practice.
May we show teamwork and pride, may we display courage and strength.
May we push ourselves to do our best and to play with honesty and integrity.
May both teams be protected from injury of body and of spirit.
May all who play here today be proud of their performance.
May we be an example of good sportsmanship and accept the outcome with humility and grace.
May the players, coaches, and parents treat each other as they would want to be treated with mutual respect, patience, understanding and appreciation.
AMEN
