Special Olympics BC is excited to announce the creation of two
new program initiatives, Active Start and FUNdamentals, which
promote the development of basic motor and sport skills for young
children with intellectual disabilities in a fun and positive
environment.
Active Start is for 2-6 year olds and is a family-based program
that focuses on basic motor skill development with attention given
to positive movement experiences. The FUNdamentals program takes
participant development to the next level with an aim of
introducing sport skills for athletes between the ages of 7-10 that
prepare participants for future sport endeavors.
Both the Active Start and FUNdamentals programs are designed to
also promote proper nutrition, education, social network building,
and an introduction to the amazing opportunities provided through
Special Olympics BC.
