She said: \u2018If I asked both my parents \u201cWho is the most competitive?\u201d, they would sit down for a long time arguing who is the most competitive and who is the most sporty.\u2019<\/p>\n William also discussed the important lesson he hopes his children, Prince George, 10, Princess Charlotte, eight, and Prince Louis, five, will learn while playing team sports.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n Talking about the skills you gain from ‘those early years of playing team sport’, he said: ‘Learning to lose, which I think we’ve got to concentrate more on nowadays.<\/p>\n ‘I think people don’t know how to lose well. Talking about our children particularly, I want to make sure they understand that.<\/p>\n ‘I think it’s really important from a young age to understand how to lose, and why we lose, and to grow from it and what you learn from that process.<\/p>\n ‘But also to win well, and not boast. There’s so many life lessons that help us all through life, in friendship building, in relationship building, workplace, that you gain from those early years of playing team sport.’<\/p>\n It was then the turn of Kate to explain why she loved team sports, with Mike joking: ‘I’m not going to say you’re really competitive… [but] I’ve seen her play beer pong.’<\/p>\n
