Unified Champion Schools Virtual Fitness

The Special Olympics Illinois UCS team is taking Unified Fitness virtual this year!

Participating in Virtual Unified Fitness qualifies as participating in a Unified Sport within the Unified Champion Schools Strategy.

We will be offering a total of 5 sessions throughout the year. Each week schools will receive 5 work outs:

• 2 Pre-Recorded Workout Videos
• 2 Written Workouts
• 1 Invite to a Live Workout that will be recorded and shared.

In addition to these great weekly workouts, schools that register and turn in a roster of participating students with a 1:1 ratio (1 SOILL Athlete to 1 SOILL Unified Partner) will receive equipment kits to give out to the students on their rosters!  Rosters must have the 1:1 ratio or they will not qualify to receive the kits.

These kits contain:

• A Jump Rope
• 4 Small Dome Cones
• A 5 lb Resistance Band
• A Deck of Cards
• A Pair of Dice
• A Step Tracker
• A Cinch Backpack

To receive the kits, the roster needs to meet the following criteria in addition to the 1:1 ratio:

• All Athletes on the roster must have a valid Medical Application and Virtual Waiver on file with Special Olympics Illinois
• All Unified Partners on the roster must have a valid Unified Partner Class A and Virtual Waiver on file with Special Olympics Illinois
• All Contacts or Coaches registering a roster must have a valid Coach Class A and Virtual Waiver on file with Special Olympics Illinois
