Your participation in this tournament helps Special Olympics Florida provide sports training and competition programs, which enhance the lives of people with intellectual disabilities not just physically, but emotionally, psychologically and socially. The skills these athletes learn through sports help build confidence and self-esteem, which carries over into all aspects of their lives!
