GOAL 1

Sensitize players to other people’s feelings
[Activities 1 and 2]

This activity package will help your players understand how people feel when they are excluded or hurt by peers. It will be useful if you feel that your players struggle to understand each other and put themselves in teammates’ shoes.

GOAL 2

Boost your team’s cohesion and identity as a group
[Activities 3 to 5]

This activity package is ideal if you want to strengthen your team’s cohesion and enforce their shared identity as team members. It could be very useful in the case of newly created teams or teams that are struggling with unity, friendship and common goals.

GOAL 3

Create shared rules of mutual respect
[Activities 6 to 8]

This activity package focuses on the development, negotiation and application of shared rules to guarantee a climate of safety and respect within the team and beyond it. It can also be used to promote the players’ intention to spread positive messages in the society.

GOAL 4

(Literally!) Tackle bullying!
[All the activities]

If you think your team might benefit from a more comprehensive approach to counteract bullying, we recommend using the complete PINBALL methodology.

And it’s not over yet!
