The only sporting reference I can see is Pitch and Toss ?

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it all on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss
Possibly another

If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run
"If you can meet with triumph and disaster / And treat those two imposters just the same"
Here is a reference:-

There is an inscription above the entryway to Centre Court which reads "If you can meet with triumph and disaster / And treat those two imposters just the same" – lines from Rudyard Kipling's poem If—
Well done Glasman
