The oath of special athletes

What is the Special Olympics

Special Olympics is an international athletic training and competition program for people with intellectual disabilities. Sports activities, practiced together with those who have equal skills, allowing these people to improve their quality of life, enabling them to achieve the maximum possible autonomy. Sport offers continuous opportunities for showing courage and ability. It becomes an effective tool for social recognition and gratification. Sport offers special athletes the opportunity to enhance their skills and to use them productively in society, which, approaching them in joyful situations and festive moments, matures a greater awareness towards intellectual disability. It is a message of great hope addressed to the needs of millions of people, their families and the whole community.
