To give athletes opportunities to challenge themselves and show their skills, Special Olympics BC Locals around the province will host SOBC Super Summer Series competitions in every single summer sport in spring/summer 2022. These competitions will be open to all registered athletes.
SOBC Return to Sport safety protocols will be followed at all times.
Because the pandemic forced the cancellation of the 2021 Special Olympics BC Summer Games and the 2022 Special Olympics Canada Summer Games, provincial and territorial Chapters across the country have worked together to develop a new pathway for athletes to qualify for spots on the national team for the 2023 Special Olympics World Summer Games in Berlin. SOBC’s path will be the SOBC Super Summer Series competitions.
Competition details:
Registration deadline was February 20.
At this time, there is no capacity for spectators at this event. Potential spectators are asked to check with local coaches for updates. Competition organizers will keep coaches up to date on whether there will be any change in capacity restrictions.
