Who Are Our Athletes?

Athletes are the heart of Special Olympics. Our athletes are children and adults with intel-lectual disabilities from all around the world. They are finding success, joy and friendship as part of our global community. They’re also having lots of fun!

Through sports, our athletes are seeing them-selves for their abilities, not disabilities. Their world is opened with acceptance and under-standing. They become confident and empow-ered by their accomplishments.

In the Estonian Special Olympics the follow-ing sports are done: Athletics, cross country skiing, aquatics, gymnastics artistic, gym-nastics rhythmic, bowling, dodgeball, football (soccer), basketball, badminton, hiking, floor hockey, table tennis, judo, MATP.

Meie tegevuseks on aastaringne erinevate spordivõistluste korraldamine intellekti-puu-dega inimestele. See annab neile jõukohase võimaluse areneda füüsiliselt, nautida liiku-mist, tunda rõõmu, saada kogemusi ja eduela-must ning kohtuda sõpradega.

Kes on meie sportlased?

Läbi Eriolümpia avastavad nad endas uusi võimeid, nende maailm on avatud uutele kogemustele ja võimalustele. Eduelamus toob neisse juurde enesekindlust ja nad tunnevad rõõmu vähi-magi õnnestumise üle. Eriolümpia on sport-laste jaoks leidnud koha nende südames ja hinges!

Spordialad (liikumistegevused), millega meie ühenduses tegeletakse: kergejõustik, ilu- ja sportvõimlemine, ujumine, murdmaasuusata-mine, bowling, petank, jalgpall, korvpall, sulg-pall, rahvastepall, matkamine, saalihoki, laua-tennis, liikumisaktiivsus, judo.
