Athletics

Owen Sound

The sport of athletics encourages athletes of all abilities and ages to compete at their optimum level. Through the track-and-field-based athletics training program, participants can develop total fitness to compete in any sport. As with all Special Olympics sports, athletics offers athletes the opportunity to learn through skill development and competitive settings and to be involved in large social settings.

Athletics encompasses sprints, longer runs, high jump, long jump, discus, shot put and other track-and-field events. Relay races build teamwork and provide a thrilling race for spectators.
