Name games, Icebreakers, trust games and team games are all an important part of the programme at Alton Castle.

Games allow young people to feel comfortable with each other as well as allowing them to have fun.

Team games are used in the first session to build on listening & communication skills as well as enabling the group to co-operate well with each other, share ideas and respect other's views.

Setting each of the small groups team challenges and then de-briefing the performance of the group, helps to set the basis for the rest of the programme.
