Metro Allstars Special Olympics Team

The first resource will be a Parent Letter for anyone interested in joining the Metro Allstars Special Olympics Team. It is a new and free team that meets twice a week. The letter explains why joining a team like this is beneficial for student and how to contact the coordinator to get started.

 

2016-2017 Metro Allstars Special Olympics Team

 

Dear Parents & students,

Special Olympics gives students the opportunity to be active with other students within their ability level.

Athletes develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage and experience joy while participating in the sharing of gifts, skills and friendship among their families, Special Olympics athletes and the community. The athletes achieve their dreams with the support of caring volunteers, coaches, family members and staff.

The team offers different sports throughout the year; basketball, track & field, bocce ball and bowling. The athletes can compete in area events as well as state games.

  • On Tuesday, the Metro Allstars Basketball team meets from 6:15 – 7:30pm.
  • The 1st Wednesday of every month is the parent, caregiver, athlete meeting.
  • On Saturdays, we’re bowling at Cherry Hill Lanes from 12:00 noon – 2:00pm.

 

THERE IS NO COST TO THE ATHLETES OR THEIR FAMILIES.

We participate in fundraising events throughout the year to raise money for uniforms, new equipment, jackets, etc.

If you‘d like to check it out and see if it’s something you would like to participate in; please stop by any Tuesday or Saturday until the end of the school year and try it out.
