When and how did you get involved with Special Olympics?

Will this be your first Special Olympics Canada Games? If not, which other National Games were you part of and in what role(s)?
Yes.
What does it mean to you to be part of Special Olympics Team BC 2024?
I am thrilled that I get to go see the next level of bowling.
What is/are your goal(s) for these National Games?
To find out the next level of bowling and to come back and let my other coaches know all about it.
What is your favourite Special Olympics experience to date?
The first time I went to Provincial Games and came home with no voice
What does competing at National Games mean to your athletes? (or, if this is your first National Games, competition in general)
I really want to see athletes from all over Canada, and I think my athletes are thinking the same!
What storylines are you excited to see develop in your SO Team BC sport team leading up to the National Games?
I really want to see all the athletes come together as a team as we have athletes from three different cities.

That it is the most rewarding thing to do. You become a extended family and they so appreciate you coming out week after week.
