Special athletes shine at tournament


The SOS athletes showed dedication and determination like any other professional athlete.

THERE was no shortage of inspiration from the 99 intellectually disabled athletes who participated in the Special Olympics Unified Bowling Tournament with their 33 non-intellectually disabled teammates.

The unified tournament organised by the Special Olympics Selangor (SOS) was to celebrate Eunice Kennedy Shriver Day (July 17 to 21) – the founder of the Special Olympics movement – and to foster interaction between both camps (three intellectually disabled athletes and one non-intellectually disabled), as they competed as a team.
