Shelby McInnis, Souris, is the Skip of Team PEI 2024's Curling team. Shelby has been a Special Olympics athlete for 16 years. He first started with Bowling, before later playing Soccer as well. 

Shelby is an avid curler who has been curling out of the Souris rink in the community league for the last 10 years. He loves participating in the league, where he has made some great friends.  The Special Olympics Canada Winter Games 2024 will be Shelby's second appearance at a National Games in the sport of curling, having also competed at the 2020 Games. These Games hold extra significance for Shelby as his brother, Scott, joins the Team PEI coaching staff. Shelby is looking forward to making friends and playing against other teams. 

In February / March of 2024, Special Olympics PEI will be represented by 33 athletes, supported by 21 coaches and mission staff, at the Special Olympics Canada Winter Games 2024 in Calgary, Alberta.
