Registration is an annual event held in June where all athletes, new and returning, fill out their registration form selecting their sport programs, complete a medical form indicating emergency contact information, known medical conditions and any current medications, and sign the Athlete's Code of Conduct.
Note: 2010 Summer Programs are already at capacity. Get on the waitlist by completing and submitting your registration form as soon as possible.
This information allows us to:
- keep in touch with you
- makes you eligible to go to competitions, and
- makes you a member of Special Olympics BC and Special Olympics Canada
Print an Athlete Registration Package (pdf) and bring it with you to registration night.

- Registration is $40.00
- There is a cost for each sport you participate
in.
The cost varies by sport depending on how much we have to pay for renting the facilities, buying equipment and going to tournaments. - We have many fundraising activities that subsidize your total cost.
- No athlete will be refused because they can't afford to participate.
- Ask the Registrar how much you will have to pay.
As an athlete you are expected to follow certain requirements to participate. The main requirements are that you will:
- agree to observe and abide by the Special Olympics Sports Rules.
- treat everyone with respect and dignity.
- remember that coaches are there to help you, accept their decision and show them respect.
- contact your Head Coach if you will be missing a practice.
- follow the rules and play in the spirit of the game.
- not wear jeans or jewellery to practices, games or tournaments.
But most of all . . . try your best and have fun!
