Love this opportunity!

The YMCA’s brand-new Special Olympics Swim Team is open to athletes ages 8+ with intellectual or developmental disabilities. This program celebrates courage, friendship, and achievement both in and out of the pool!

Practices are held at both the Walton County and Brad Akins YMCAs, as we train together to proudly represent our community at the 2026 Special Olympics Georgia Summer Games at Emory University. 🏅

Spots are limited — dive in today and join a team where every athlete shines! ✨
