It is prom season! It is a great time to help students get creative in asking their dates to prom, helping with dresses, makeup, dinner, chaperoning, and more. At YLHelp we’ve posted several times before about doing a Mock Prom Club, but it is worth doing every year. Mock Prom […]
Thanks to our growing efforts in International South Young Life, we have been able to keep an eye on things that previously we would have missed. Fortunately our YL team in Taiwan spotted a recent product infringement of our new favorite pastime, Spikeball. Spikeball has been all the rage with […]
I have a question for you, do you want to build a snowman? Well, not at YL summer camp. It is time to let it go. In an effort to “get ahead of things”, a source told us that a private meeting happened with representatives from both sides. Apparently the […]
Though 37 is the new 20, or so I keep telling myself, eventually we all get old. Even high school kids feel old. For instance, when the 17 year old senior in high school says, “man look at all these immature kids at my school, I’m too old for this… […]

Ok, the real name of this club is “poop” club, but I just couldn’t allow myself to title the post with that. One of our great leaders (certainly not the same person in the picture above) has really really wanted to do this club for a long time. So due […]
Our club is in a little short-term state of flux for our location this semester so we thought through some creative options about our location. One of the things we wanted to do was one of the old fashioned “Rooftop” clubs. In the first years of YL they held some […]
The Winter Olympics are in full swing… even here in sunny Arizona! This is a great opportunity to use the momentum and billions of dollars of advertising going on to have a fun club. Olympics Club – PHS Spring 2014.docx HERE and HERE are some other ideas too. PS… As […]
Valentine’s Day is still a little ways away but this is a club that we do every year and is a lot of fun. Kissing rugby is a little sketchy but with the right sell and oversight it is an annual favorite. Enjoy! Here is another idea you can use […]
It has been amazing to see the Lord move in International YL. I remember a lot of years ago when I had the privilege to show Alexis from Tanzania how to play Brown Eyed Girl as he was going to do program at Lost Canyon that summer. In many ways […]
In our area we have two areas of focus this year, and one of them is contact work. I’ve tried to document some of our thoughts HERE, HERE, and HERE for just a few examples. In our monthly area leadership meetings we highlight some of the leaders who are knocking […]
