Description

This requires high level basketball skills and conditioning. Athletes should be in good to great physical shape and be able to run continually up and down the court. They will also be expected to run plays on offense, commit to playing high effort on defense and understand more advanced basketball terminology. Roster spots are limited to 20 athletes (10 per team) Athletes will be evaluated to SOWA standards and are subject to being moved to a Traditional Basketball team on Wednesdays.

Special Olympics has not released the dates or locations for Sub-Regional and Regional Tournaments. Please provide a reliable email during registration, as all scheduling and regional information will be communicated via email.
