Meet Northern Ireland's next generation of Young Athletes!

Meet Northern Ireland’s next generation of stars!

We’re thrilled to see the incredible young athletes highlighted in the recent Belfast Live article — bringing energy, commitment and joy to the sport. 💪

At Special Olympics Ireland, our Young Athletes Programme empowers children and youth with intellectual disabilities to access sports by learning basic skills in a fun inclusive environment.  Programmes like these really give children the chance to play sport, be part of a team, and make friends!
