Special Olympics Oath

 

 

 

Special Olympics is the world’s largest sports organization. In Southern California, more than 12,000 children and adults with intellectual disabilities participate in year-round sports training and competition, giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills and friendships with their families, other Special Olympics athletes and the community. Special Olympics programs are offered at no cost to the athletes and their families.

The global Special Olympics movement got its start on July 20, 1968 when the first International Special Olympics Games were held at Soldier Field in Chicago, IL. But the concept of Special Olympics was born much earlier, when Eunice Kennedy Shriver started a day camp for people with intellectual disabilities at her home in 1962. Olympian Rafer Johnson was instrumental in bringing Special Olympics to California in 1969, and he remains an active member of the SOSC Board of Governors as Founding Member.

Special Olympics is unique in its practice of accommodating competitors at all ability levels in order to give everyone an opportunity to win. This is achieved by assigning athletes to divisions based on age and previous performance and matching athletes with those of similar abilities. Competitions are offered at the local area and chapter-wide levels in most sports. Special Olympics Southern California (SOSC) conducts four multi-day, multi-sport, chapter-wide competitions each year: Summer Games, Winter Games and Sports Classics I and II. In addition, there are two single-sport Championships spaced throughout the year. Alternating every two years, selected Special Olympics Southern California athletes have the opportunity to advance to Special Olympics International -- Summer and Winter Games. All Special Olympics competitions are patterned on the World Olympic Games, with the pageantry of opening and closing ceremonies, the lighting of the Special Olympics flame and the awarding of medals.

Special Olympics athletes must be at least eight years old to compete, possess a valid Special Olympics Health Record, and be pre-registered for the event.  Many athletes continue competing into their 60s, 70s and 80s. The common denominator for Special Olympics athletes is that they are individuals with mental retardation, or closely associated developmental disabilities. Some athletes also have physical disabilities.

BowlingSpecial Olympics bowling is one of the fastest growing sports. When it was first included at the 1987 Special Olympics World Summer Games, bowling was dominated by American athletes and hosted only 33 competitors. At the 1995 World Games, just eight years later, bowling boasted 454 athletes from 23 countries! Special Olympics offers bowling in every US program and in over 20 countries around the globe.

Many athletes choose bowling because it is a sport people enjoy for leisure as well as competition. Although there are some modifications made for athletes with physical disabilities, most athletes compete under the same rules and circumstances as athletes on a professional tour. As in all Special Olympics sports, bowling teams are grouped in competition divisions according to the athletes' ability level, age and gender.

Special Olympics bowling also includes a Unified Sports® division. In this competition athletes with and without mental retardation compete on the same team. Their score is averaged, and the best averaged score wins. Special Olympics conducts an annual National Unified Sports® Bowling Championship in conjunction with the opening of the American Bowling Congress Tournament.

Divisioning Process for Individual Sports

Step 1: Divide Athletes by Gender
Divide athletes into two groups based upon gender. Female athletes will compete against other female athletes, male athletes against other male athletes. When a relay team consists of both male and female athletes, the team is considered a "male" team and competes in a male division.
 
Step 2: Divide Athletes by Age
The next step is to divide the group by athlete's ages which be determined by the athlete's age on the opening date of the competition.
 
 
Age Groups
8-11
12-15
16-21
22-29
30+
 
Step 3: Divide Athletes by Ability
To complete the divisioning process, divide the group according to their performance marks. In some instances age groups need to be broadened. In those cases, athletes within the new age groups will be re-ranked and grouped into divisions. This process must be repeated until the highest and lowest scores within each division are as similar as possible.

 

 

Divisioning Process for Team Sports

Step 1: Divide Team by Gender
Divide teams into two groups based upon gender. Female teams shall compete against other female teams and male teams shall compete against other male teams. Mixed gender teams are permissible and shall compete against other mixed gender teams or, if there are not enough mixed gender teams, against male teams.
 
Teams shall compete against other teams of the same gender, unless there is only one male or one female team within the competition. That team shall be divisioned with teams of the opposite gender who are of similar age and ability.
 
Step 2: Divide Athletes by Age
The age group of a team is determined by the age of the oldest athlete on that team on the opening date of the competition. Divide male and female teams into the age groups listed below. An additional group may be established if there are a sufficient number of teams in the "22 and over" age group.
 
 
Age Groups
15 and under
16-21
22 and over
 
Step 3: Divide Athletes by Ability
All Special Olympics team sport competitions shall utilize the sports specific skill assessment tests and a preliminary seeding round to assess the level of ability of the participating teams.
 
Group teams according to ability based on the skills assessment tests and results from the preliminary seeding round. Create divisions of no more than eight teams by applying age groups to the teams within each ability group. If you do not have enough athletes in an age group, age groups may be combined to create divisions.
If there are only two male or two female teams within the competition, these teams shall compete against each other.
 
If there is only one team within an age or ability group, that team must be divisioned with other teams, regardless of age or ability.

 

 

 

 

  

When did the Law Enforcement Torch Run begin?
The Law Enforcement Torch Run® for Special Olympics began in 1981 when Wichita, Kansas (USA) Police Chief Richard LaMunyon saw an urgent need to raise funds for and increase awareness of Special Olympics. He conceived of the idea of a Torch Run as a way to involved local law enforcement personnel in the community with Special Olympics. Three years later, the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) leant its support to this growing movement. With IACP's enthusiastic support and leadership, as well as the involvement of all facets of the law enforcement community – sheriff's associations, police unions, state, county, municipal, military, and federal law enforcement agencies, and corrections officers – the Torch Run expanded to 50 states, 11 Canadian provinces, and more than 30 countries by 1999.

How do law enforcement officers raise money?
Most Torch Run programs raise money through the Torch Run itself; law enforcement officers who participate in the Run collect pledges in order to participate or collect sponsorships for each mile thy run. The sales of Torch Run t-shirts to runners and to the public also generates significant money. The Law Enforcement Torch Run® has blossomed into a year-round fund-raising initiative. Some of the exciting fund-raisers put on by law enforcement officers around the world include: billboard sits, Plane Pull®, Polar Bear Plunges, golf tournaments, bowling tournaments, raffles, trivia contests.
