*           Character Building Benefits From Volunteering; and

*           wise counsel from the Cross Section Of Mentors,
to thereby attain the Thirteen Deliverables From 'Aboriginal Teenager Life Skills' Philanthropic Programme as a platform to Maximise Life Opportunities.

Below is an extract from Accepted Year 9 Aboriginal Students:

"12 of the 14 Accepted Year 9 Aboriginal Students in each of the Ten Regional Township Teams will attend each of the Three Motivational Teams Challenges.  Selection of the final 12 Accepted Year 9 Aboriginal Students to attend a particular venue from the Four Challenge Judging Major City Venues will be based on the commitment and dedication of each Accepted Year Aboriginal 9 Student to attend weekly Indigenous Local Connector Training Sessions, and their natural aptitude for each of the Three Motivational Teams Challenges.  Logically, some students will be more suited to sports, with others better suited to public speaking, and others with a penchant for information technology.  Hence, each Accepted Year 9 Aboriginal Student would know that they are not guaranteed to attend each of the Three Motivational Teams Challenge which should increase commitment and dedication to attend weekly Indigenous Local Connector Training Sessions.

It is intended that each of the 14 Accepted Year 9 Aboriginal Students into each of the Ten Regional Township Teams will attend at least two of the Three Motivational Teams Challenges."

Team Bonding Impacts Of Three Motivational Teams Challenges notes that -

(a)        all 'Awards' by the Panel Of Three Judges during the Three Motivational Teams Challenges will be for 'Team Performance', with no explicit 'Awards' for individual performance, although patently viewers, and the Cross Section Of Mentors and Various Parties will notice individual performances.

(b)        the 'Winning Township Team' will be announced by the Panel Of Three Judges for each of the Three Motivational Teams Challenges.  However, there will be no 'Runner up' or 'Third Place' awards.  

Teenager Life Skills'  Early Intervention Philanthropic Programme is not about ranking the performance of individual students from amongst the 120 Accepted Year 9 Aboriginal Students from the Ten Regional Township Teams in the Three Motivational Teams Challenges.  It is about 'my team' striving to succeed.

5 of the Ten Regional Township Teams will attend the Western City Tri-Sports Challenge and the other 5 will attend the Eastern City Tri-Sports Challenge;
