Sports we participate in are bowling, bocce ball, basketball, volleyball, table tennis, track/field, swimming and tennis. If you have a client interested in participating in Special Olympics she will need to have physical and have a current medical form on file with Special Olympics Texas. These are good for 3 years and we can give you the form. We look forward to hearing back from you and hope you'll attend a fun night for more details.
