💡 Facilitator's Note on Social Inclusion: Remember, true inclusion is not just about being present on the field; it is about being an active part of the team. When designing your activities, ensure there are moments for interaction, such as team huddles or peer-led warm-ups. Participation is the first step toward social change—every shared high-five is a strike against stigma!
