Soccer “kicked” into the number one spot as Special Olympics’ most popular sport with over 150,000 athletes competing worldwide. Soccer, also known as Football outside the US, is offered in over 130 countries. Players improve their overall physical fitness through training and competition. Athletes also benefit through team building, communication, camaraderie and friendship.
Athletes with average or moderate ability are offered modified team competition. The game, which is played with only five players to a team and on a smaller field, is easier to understand and provides the transition from individual skills competition to traditional team play.
