Sports

Special Olympics Manitoba offers 18 different sports to the seven Regions throughout Manitoba. SOM provides the training and experiences needed for all athletes to compete in a variety of competitions though out the season.

The fundamental difference that sets Special Olympics competitions apart from generic sport, is that athletes are grouped (divisioned) according to their skill level. This provides the opportunity to participate, compete and win at every level.
