COVID Announcement – September 1, 2021

Due to the recent increase of COVID cases, Special Olympics Greater Memphis is suspending all in-person events, including training, competitions and travel through September 31, 2021. The health and safety of our athletes, volunteers, staff, and the community remains to be our top priority. We continue to be in close contact with others in similar situations in order to make informed decisions. This decision has been made using evidence available at this time, including emerging data showing elevated risk for people with intellectual disabilities developing serious illness if they contract coronavirus.

We will continue to host virtual fitness trainings, games, and cooking classes. If you have not signed up for our virtual program, please email Lisa Taylor with your athlete’s full name & date of birth, and we will add you to our list.  We really want our athletes to remain active and engaged during this time. So, please sign them up.

IMPORTANT:

All athletes are required to have the new SOI medical completed to be able to participate in Special Olympics programs/events. Please click on the link below to fill out the information for the new medical. Once complete, you will need to print a copy and have the doctor sign. Please return a copy to our office via email, fax, or mail once it has been signed.
