Coaching Can Change A Life...
SOSC needs dedicated volunteer coaches- both adults and teens. Whether you are an experienced coach or not, you bring
enthusiasm and some knowledge. We provide the Special Olympics training you need to be a successful coach. If you
become a coach, you'll find the rewards go far beyond the finish line. As a volunteer coach, you become a role model, friend,
and character builder. You help athletes discover their physical skills, self worth, human courage and capacity to grow-
providing training for life. Being a Special Olympics coach is one of the most important and rewarding volunteer roles.
