It's hard. I was a youth worker for a bit. Anything I tried to get them to corporate in they rebelled because it was a "grandpa" thing.
Attention spans just don't exist nowadays. Spending five minutes explaining the manual of a game is over. They won't listen and get bored very quickly even if you get a round in. TikTok appears to mitigates that as you can do your thing in a matter of seconds.
Even the younger adult leaders were struggling to get them engaged. At least football's still a thing.
