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.
Registration Information for 2010/11
Registration packages were mailed out in the middle of May. Please watch for the registration envelopes. We are encouraging athletes to mail their completed forms with payment as soon as possible, rather than wait for Registration Night.
All the information you need for filling out forms is in the letter with your package..
Please send completed forms to the Special Olympics PO Box address noted in your letter. Since some of our sports get filled up quickly, all return envelopes will be dated when received and processed in that order.
Registration night will still be held on June 11th from 6:30-7:30 at the COMMUNITY
LIVING VICTORIA CENTRE, 3861 Cedar Hill Cross Rd.
Please check the Program Participation Fee /Registration Receipt carefully for any fee increases. Our costs have increased and our funding has decreased we therefore, unfortunately, have to increase your fees.
If you have any questions you may contact the Registrar, Christine Kyles, at 250-477-7106 or christinekyles@yahoo.ca
