D was the intramural sports coordinator for two of her college dorms. In both years that she did this, her dorms won the overall intramural championships. It wasn’t that her dorm had the best athletes, but since participation counts for a lot, she was able to motivate a large number of kids to participate in sports that they had no previous experience doing and to generally support intramural program.

So far, she hasn’t had a job in the real world that makes use of this talent. But I think it’s a great life skill.
