Resourcing Each Other
Kids/Teen Games
Kids/Teen Games are an exciting opportunity to see sport reach across communities and to use sport as a catalyst for outreach - it is not solely sport, check out http://www.kidsgames.com/ for further info. I believe that the opportunity for the 'church'/christian community to get involved in this initiative in the years up to Glasgow 2014 are huge.
