Description:
Unified Basketball is an inclusive sports program through Special Olympics, which pairs athletes with and without intellectual disabilities on the same coed team and offers an inclusive playing field. By participating together, Special Olympians and Unified Partners improve their physical fitness, sharpen their skills and challenge the competition.
The athletes practice and compete together which challenges each athletes’ abilities, builds new friendships, overcomes social barriers, and allows athletes to play the sports they love. Athletes are encouraged to register with a partner, but individuals will be accepted.
There is no fee to participate in this program but pre-registration is required. We are also looking for adults interested in helping or becoming volunteer coaches.
The season will culminate in an end of the year community game on March 11 in the HS East Gym.
