Abstract

   Whether working in the community or in schools, helping young people develop transferable life skills in physical activity settings 
   poses challenges (Hellison, 2011). For young people, recognising and naming these life skills is one step toward ownership; 
   transferring this knowledge to life outside of school or youth programs is a more complex process. This article describes how 
   one TPSR-based program (Hellison, 2011) embeds into its daily format a routine that ensures that students participate in an 
   on-going reflective loop. This process asks students to consider which life skills they are transferring between the program 
   and other contexts. The ‘Three Point Line’ is a site of guided talk and written reflections about the use of transferable life skills, 
   helping participants take ownership of the skills of personal and social responsibility.
