Article 2: Special Olympics Athletes:
“Article 2 provides that every person with an intellectual disability who is at least eight years of age is eligible to participate in Special Olympics, and that there is no maximum age limit for participation. It also highlights the Young Athletes program which introduces children from two to seven years old to the world of sport with the goal of preparing them for Special Olympics sports training and competition when they get older.
Participation in Special Olympics is open to all persons with intellectual disabilities who meet the age requirements of this Article, whether or not that person also has other mental or physical disabilities, so long as that person registers to participate. ”
If you have an intellectual disability you can join the Special Olympics but you have to have the disability, schizophrenia will not stop you.
But having schizophrenia will not get you into the Special Olympics.
