The tail, or flagellum, of the sperm cell is responsible for providing locomotion by propelling the cell forward through fluid environments like the female reproductive tract.
the tail helps the sperm cell swim up to the egg cell
The tail in a sperm cell, also known as the flagellum, helps the sperm cell to swim and propel itself towards the egg during fertilization. It provides the necessary motility for the sperm cell to reach and penetrate the egg for successful fertilization.
A sperm cell has a tail and can swim around to fing the egg.

flagellum
so it can swim
Sperm cell of mammals has three parts which are the head, mid-piece, and the tail. The part that lashes for the sperm to move is the tail which is also called flagellum.
The tail of the sperm cell
Tail sheath acts as a cell membrane to the sperm.
A sperm cell has a small agile tail which swings to and fro to push the cell forward. This tail helps it to move. Unlike the sperm cell the egg cell doesn't move since when the sperm cell unites with it the food is provided by the egg cell.
