In 7th grade I was a bench warmer on the basketball team. At the end of the year banquet, EVERYONE, regardless of how much they played or how big or small their contribution got an award. Mine was the "Commitment Award." To be honest I found this obvious participation award embarrassing and would rather have not been mentioned at all.
