FUNdamental Sports is a free Special Olympics program that includes three core principles: Foundational Skills, Unified Partners, and No Limits. Together, these three concepts put the FUN in FUNdamental Sports. This program establishes individualized programs for students ages two and older who, due to their physical and/or developmental abilities, are working on foundational motor skills considered essential for participation in Special Olympics events, daily life and leisure activities. FUNdamental Sports are also designed for students who are unable to participate in typical Special Olympics events because of their functional skills and/or behavioral abilities. Participants in the session will learn how to accommodate foundational skills for all ability levels through use of adapted equipment and physical assistance that are matched to the individual s level of need. |
