YEARS INVOLVED WITH SPECIAL OLYMPICS:
I believe its 2, but my memory is hilariously inaccurate.
SPORTS YOU COACH:
I coach track and field and floor hockey.
HOW YOU BECAME INVOLVED:
I became involved through a family friend and a presentation that a Special O representative did at our school.
WHAT YOU LIKE ABOUT COACHING SPECIAL O ATHLETES:
Special O athletes are some of the greatest athletes I’ve ever worked with. Their unlimited determination, surprising positivity, and eagerness to learn is both inspiring and heart warming. Members of my own sports teams could benefit from sharing these same paradigms.
BEST ACCOMPLISHMENT IN COACHING:
So far my best accomplishment was going to the Summer games this year. Organizing a large group of athletes, cheering them on, and watching them get rewarded for their efforts is the best thing I could ever hope for in my small role in their athletic development.
