Look Up: “Discovering 9’s Pins”
As a first step, students are invited to go behind the scenes of the Archives to understand the specific missions (collection, classification, conservation, communication). During this visit, they will be presented with a selection of documents on the theme of traditional sports.
The rest of the session is devoted to one of them: the keel of 9.
Accompanied by experienced players, students discover the history and rules of this unknown discipline, fun but also competitive.
Guided by these experts, everyone can try their hand at quilhon, which requires precision and skill. It is also an opportunity to learn a few words in béarnais, through the specific vocabulary of 9 pins.
In addition, an exhibition and a small playful and educational booklet are available for students, teachers and accompanying persons.
