Which statement is included as part of the Olympic Creed (summary) in the material?

• A. Not to win but to take part
• B. Not the triumph but the struggle
• C. Not to have conquered but to have fought well
• D. Team Spirit

Answer: (A)

The key idea here is that the Olympic Creed emphasizes participation and effort over victory. The line about not to win but to take part directly expresses that message, highlighting that taking part with good spirit and trying your best is more important than the outcome. This is the creed’s central reminder about the value of competing for personal and sporting growth, not just for the sake of winning. The other statements touch on related ideas—struggle, fighting well, or team spirit—but they don’t state the creed’s core message as clearly or succinctly as the line about taking part.
