Special Olympics
Through the power of sports, people with disabilities discover new strengths and abilities, skills and success. Athletes find joy, confidence and fulfillment — on the playing field and in life. They also inspire people in their communities and elsewhere to open their hearts to a wider world of human talents and potential.
Through sports, Ohio Special Olympics showcase the skills and dignity of the athletes. It also brings together communities to see and take part in the transformative power of sports. We know the odds athletes must overcome and the barriers they face every single day. We see this at training events and competitions as athletes push to beat their personal bests — and exceed them. Their stories and successes inspire us all. Find Your Regional Director |
Champaign County Miracle Youth League
The Champaign County Miracle Youth League is a nonprofit softball league for children, ages 4-18, with any type of disability in Champaign and all surrounding counties, including: Logan, Clark, Madison, Shelby, etc. The league is for fun, not competition, with every child on the team batting and playing in the field, and with no score being kept.
The safety of the children is the top priority, with a special softer softball being used and the use of “buddies” on the field to direct and help the children if needed. If your child is interested in participating in the program, a parent or legal guardian must register the child by April 1st, 2024.
