Features of Athletes’ Speeches 1 & 2
Professional athletes often give victory speeches in English. Many of these speeches share four common features: honoring their opponents, acknowledging their achievements, expressing sincere gratitude, and showing humility.

Firstly, athletes usually begin their speeches by praising their opponents and often making eye contact with them. This respect is important, regardless of whether they win or lose.

Secondly, winners acknowledge their opponents’ hard work, recognizing the challenges they may have faced, such as injuries or difficulties before the game.

Features of Athletes’ Speech 3
Third, athletes often express appreciation to their fans and supporters after a victory. Behind every professional athlete, there are coaches, trainers, managers, and nutritionists working together. Additionally, various staff members, such as referees, officials, sponsors, and volunteers, are essential to organizing a successful tournament.

For example, after a big game, a winning player may thank everyone involved, including their team and country.

Acknowledging the staff and organizers is an important part of their speech, showing appreciation for the teamwork involved in their achievement.

Features of Athletes’ Speech 4
Lastly, showing humility is a technique unique to professional athletes’ speeches. They often share their worries or weaknesses, which fosters connection and creates a positive impression on the audience. Being humble can be challenging, but many athletes successfully employ this technique.

For example, at one award ceremony, an athlete held his notes and referred to them frequently. He concluded his speech by saying, “I hope I won’t need this cheat sheet next time.” This display of humility made the audience laugh.

By understanding these key features of athletes’ speeches, particularly the emphasis on humility and authenticity, you can enhance your own speech and make a greater impact on your audience.

Gongitsune is a story about a fox named Gon and a fisherman named Hyoju. Hyoju was fishing in a river one day. Gon stole the eel he had caught. When Gon later saw a funeral procession for Hyoju’s mother, he realized that the eel was for her to eat when she was sick. Gon felt sorry for having it. He decided to bring mushrooms and chestnuts to Hyoju’s house every day. But Gon was shot with a shotgun by Hyoju after he spotted him sneaking around one day. When he discovered several chestnuts close to Gon’s body, he understood that Gon had brought them for him.
