About our Athletes

Today, more than 1,700 people participate in Special Olympics South Dakota’s year-round athletic programs. Any individual eight years of age or older with intellectual disabilities is eligible to participate in Special Olympics.

Special Olympics South contributes to the physical, social and psychological development of people with intellectual disabilities. Through successful experiences in sports, athletes gain confidence and build a positive self-image associated with success. This success carries over into the classroom, the home and community.

Potential Athletes Must:

  • Be identified as having an intellectual disability or a closely related developmental disability.
  • Be eight years of age or older.
  • Be registered with the SOSD State Office (A valid Application for Participation i.e., Medical/Release Form, must be on file)
  • Complete mandatory training requirements.
  • Submit the appropriate registration materials by the designated due dates for each event.
