The Young Athletes Program is an innovative program that was designed for children, ages 2-7, with intellectual disabilities in order to introduce them to the world of sports.

This program was developed to focus on foundational skills that will help a child improve physically, cognitively and socially. The Young Athletes Program serves as an introduction to Special Olympics South Carolina and the support we can provide to families and schools.
