I have inherited a games club at school. It was originally a Warhammer club and I have opened it out to be any form of war gaming, modelling, board games, terrain making and painting (but not computer games).
I have had some success in attracting new members and we have had a bit of fun making boards, terrain and some short battles (mostly LOTR based).
My aim is to encourage teamwork, planning, strategic thinking, maths etc and have some real fun at the same time.
Some of the lads have never really played games before or made stuff, a couple are hard nosed 40k players who simply get on by themselves, a couple are really timid lads and one lad has blossomed over the last year, looking after some of the new/young members. It’s a mixed bag.
If anybody has experience of a club like this or any ideas or activities, I would welcome any kind of advice or suggestions.
(It’s a UK based secondary, members are all 11 to 13 and, at the moment, all boys).
Cheers
PS Hi mods, if this is in the wrong forum, just let me know and I'll do the decent ...
