    Let’s get Started! A 12-Step guide to Starting a Local Program Thank you for your interest in starting a Special Olympics Local Program. This packet of information will help you and potential Special Olympics athletes become fully involved in the Special Olympics movement. Launched in 1968, Special Olympics currently involves more than 1.2 million athletes in 150 countries worldwide. This free, year-round sports training and athletic competition program offers eligible athletes a choice of 16 Olympic- type sports. In Kentucky almost 5,000 Special Olympics athletes are currently registered for the program. Any person age 8 years and older with intellectual disabilities is eligible. An athlete’s present skill level in sports is secondary because Special Olympics is available for all ability levels. Athletes may choose from the 16 Olympic-type sports for all ability levels, developmental events for the most significantly challenged participants with both cognitive and physical disabilities, to Unified Sports® Programs for Special Olympics athletes and teammates without intellectual disabilities. A local team/program can be a school, an association, a team, an ARC group, or any grouping of individuals that join together in their objectives to form a Special Olympics team/program. If no groups exist in your community, ONE individual can register and be considered a local team/program. Along with this packet you will need the following materials to get started: • New Local Team/Program Registration Form • Athlete Medical Status Form • Volunteer Application Form • Athlete Registration/ Medical Form • Program Guide Most of these forms can be downloaded from our website under the Local Programs tab, go to Resource Library and then Forms.
