Not the best photo as half the gang are not in frame. This was a multi player game of pool, its obvious right? Couple of que's, standard pool table, 15 balls, it's obviously a bog standard game of pool innit? What you might not realise is that young people are building relationships, a common history with their peers and youth workers. They're talking, not necessarily about their next shot, they're negotiating their own rules of engagement, they're talking about fair play and how this transfers into daily life and routines. It invites friendly competition, although the stakes were very high (a Cadbury's Freddo :) ) Conversations about winning and losing and how we cope with that. Nope...it ain't no bog standard game of pool :) #youthworkworks YMCA Barnsley YMCA England & Wales Barnsley Central Area Team Barnsley North Area Team #transferableskills #lifeskills #makeyourownrules #buildingresilience #CommonHistory #buildingrelationships ...
