Athletics - Special Olympics

Special Olympics 2007
Auburn Parks and Recreation supports Special Olympics by sponsoring teams for many of the Special Olympic events.  Currently, we support athletes for bowling, bocce, swimming and track and field events.  Practices take place throughout the year with the help of local Special Olympics volunteer coaches.  You must be at least 8 years of age and meet the requirements of the Alabama Special Olympic Guidelines in order to participate.  We currently need Coaches for our Special Olympic Athletes - if you have the time and the interest to help coach these dynamic and fun-loving kids, please contact the Lee County Special Olympics Director or the State office today!
