REGISTRATION
All athletes are expected to conduct themselves at practices and competitions as outlined in the Athlete code of conduct. As appropriate, athletes are expected to support fundraising activities and take an active role in supporting team activities.
Please send your intentions to participate in each sport by using the online system or emailing stcloudareaspecialolympics@gmail.com in advance so planning for coaches, etc. can occur.
​
Some sports are limited to the number of athletes due to space, the game, etc. For these sports, acceptance is based on a first come first serve basis. A waiting list is maintained in case someone needs to drop out. Once the list of athletes is set for each sport, an email will be sent to athletes to confirm participation and schedule.
​
All athletes are required to have medical and consent forms completed and on file with the SOMN before an athlete’s first practice. To complete the required paperwork follow these steps:
