On July 15, a football match took place between youth and youth workers

July 16, 2020

On July 15, a football match, hopefully becoming a tradition, took place at Mart Reinik Stadium between youth and youth workers.

The youth workers kicked off the ball on the field, and a fairly even match began. Such was the impression at first glance. However, the young people quickly scored the first goal, and the first half ended with a score of 3:1 in favor of the youth.
If it was already noticeable at the end of the first half that the youth workers were 'out of breath' and exhausted, it was even more apparent in the second half. The final score of the game was 5:1 in favor of the youth. The award ceremony took place at Lille Youth Center, where the winners received medals and a cup.

The youth team consisted of: Liisa Veddel, Kätliin Maddi, Matheo Nuga, Rasmus Antsi, Ragnar Antsi, Marti J and Uku S.
The TNTK team was represented by: Ana Dvalashvili, Liisi Trumm, Grete Sarap, Elen Hermanson, Kauri Kaljuste, Urban Mislej and Rando-Kristen Kangro.

Heartfelt thanks to our spontaneous judge Tauri Vahesaar!

A big thank you to all players and spectators!

However, the youth workers are now diligently training to get their revenge next year.

A New Chapter in My Journey in Youth Work

Change, Learning, and Growth at the Tartu Youth Work Center A New Beginning in a New Place A while ago, a new chapter began in my professional life. I started working at the Tartu Youth Work Center as a senior youth worker. This brought with it a new work environment, new people, and greater responsibility, but also the opportunity to view youth work from a slightly different perspective than before. Starting a new job always means adapting.

Youth Counselor Oksana Knjaz: “None of us has to handle everything on our own!”

Let’s meet Oksana Knjaz, a youth counselor working at our Anne House.
