Special Olympics offers training and competition opportunities in 30 Olympic-type sports for athletes 8 years or older.  For children with intellectual disabilities ages 2 through 7, Special Olympics provides a Young Athletes Program. Special Olympics coaches have a unique opportunity to work with athletes in competitive situations to assist in their training for life. As a grass-roots organization, Special Olympics relies on volunteers at all levels of the movement to ensure that every athlete is offered a quality sports training and competition experience. Individual donors, corporate partners and many others make it possible for Special Olympics to offer children and adults with intellectual disabilities the opportunity to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage and experience joy through participation in the program.

Athletes and delegation members from Special Olympics Mexico eagerly await takeoff. There is never a charge to athletes for participation in Special Olympics; supporters who donate their unused frequent flyer miles help to significantly defray travel costs.

Do you have more frequent flyer miles than you can possibly use? Please consider donating them to Special Olympics through our association with the mileage donation programs of several leading airlines.
