Special Olympics - D15 Blue Jays

D15 Special Olympics Blue Jays logo

District 15 Special Olympics provides sports training and competition in a variety of sports for children ages 8-15 having a variety of disabilities. These sports provide opportunities to develop physical fitness, the development of leisure skills, the enjoyment of learning new skills, the experience of working with their peers, and being a part of a team while making friends and improving social interactions.

District 15 Special Olympics team, the Blue Jays, is currently looking at representing District 15 in the following sports: Snowshoeing, Track and Field, Soccer, and Soccer Skills. We may be able to offer additional sports depending on student interest and coaching availability. 

To be eligible to participate in Special Olympics, an athlete must be at least eight years old on or before the date of the competition and have an IEP. The athlete’s IEP must have at least one academic goal regardless of classroom placement.

Teams will have practices one day a week about eight weeks prior to the event. These practices will be run after school hours at one of our district schools and led by both the Head Coach and Assistant Coach.
