Special Olympics PEI, Team PEI 2024, Eric Coughlin

Eric Coughlin has been a Special Olympics athlete for 9 years. He first joined Special Olympics to make new friends. 

The Special Olympics Canada Winter Games 2024 will be Eric's second National Games. Eric was also a member of Team PEI Floor Hockey at the Special Olympics Canada Winter Games 2016 in Corner Brook.  Winning the Gold medal at those Games remains Eric's favourite Special Olympics moment.

Team PEI will compete in 7 sports: 5-Pin Bowling, Cross Country Skiing, Curling, Figure Skating, Floor Hockey, Snowshoeing, and Speed Skating.  Be sure to follow along between now and February as we continue to Meet Team PEI 2024!
