Video Scenario Response
A vibrant Learn Fresh event with a large crowd. You’re standing in front of the group of kids (some have never met before). They’re a mix of nervous and excited energy, some are bouncing on their feet, others are fidgeting. The goal is to build excitement while introducing the importance of sportsmanship, teamwork, and respect.

How would welcome the kids, break the ice, get the kids comfortable with each other, and emphasize the core values of sportsmanship—respecting opponents, encouraging teammates, and handling both wins and losses with grace?
