What you have to do
Plan and run a minimum of three games with the section you are volunteering with. At least one game should take place indoors and one outdoors.
The games should be varied, incorporating:
- at least two different types of leadership style (refer to Module B and Module C)
- three different types of games; for example some games may be more energetic and active, while others may be more creative or reflective (refer to Module E)
To complete this mission, you could:
- run a game at the beginning or end of a section night
- run a wide game on a camp
- run a game that ties into a badge the section is working towards
- run a game that reinforces something the section has learned
- any other ideas, subject to agreement with ESL-YL and Section Leader
This could be done in a virtual section meeting too!
