The resources were designed to be utilized with flexibility, giving Programs the opportunity to integrate and implement the resources in a way that aligns with their current goals and objectives.
Special Olympics gives athletes the opportunity to learn different sports, be part of a team, compete, have fun, and make new friends. If you are interested in participating as a Special Olympics athlete please complete the forms under Athlete Forms.
