To be eligible to participate you must be registered as a Special Olympics New Jersey Young Athlete and need to sign-up for Young Athlete Summer Games.
At Summer Games, the smallest members of our community will learn basics like balance, running, throwing, and kicking, in addition to running the 25-meter Future Stars Race; all while making new friends and having fun! Here, you will find:
