We want to celebrate everybody that came to the #YGames, so much great youth work happening around Perth & Kinross and so many fantastic young people.

We also want to specifically celebrate our YMCA Tayside team as the winners! A fantastic effort, scoring 53/60 points across the event. It was great to see young people we've known for a few years now so excited!
