Special Olympics Young Athletes KC RSVP
Special Olympics Kansas Young Athletes is returning to Kansas City this Spring!

Program Description: Special Olympics Young Athletes is an early childhood play program for children with and without intellectual disabilities, ages 2 to 7 years old. Young Athletes introduces basic sport skills, like running, kicking and throwing. Young Athletes will develop motor skills; social, emotional, and learning skills; expectations; sports readiness; and acceptance. Young Athletes offers families, teachers, caregivers and people from the community the chance to share the joy of sports with all children.

Date/Time: Thursdays, from May 6th - June 10th, at 6:00PM to 7:00PM

Location: Indian Valley Elementary School (11600 Knox St, Overland Park, KS 66210) - We will be in the school playground (outdoors) or inside in the gym depending on weather and COVID restrictions.

Note: Volunteers and adults in attendance are required to wear masks. We will do our best to stay socially distanced but given the nature of the event it's not completely possible. If you have questions or concerns about our COVID safety protocols please contact us.

What to expect: After arriving and checking-in, participants will do a fun warm-up/game with the instructors. Following the warm-up, participants will go through a series of simple physical activity stations that work on Walking & Running, Balance & Jumping, Trapping & Catching, Throwing and Kicking. We encourage Parents/siblings to watch from the sidelines BUT if a child needs more attention or you want to participate with them it is definitely allowed.

Families will receive activity guides and some equipment to do the activities at home.

This is also a great opportunity for parents of children with ID to meet and network with each other.
