Virtual Programming

Special Olympics Illinois is committed to bringing athletes the support they need, even off the field of play. Virtual Programing is meant to serve as a resource for Special Olympics Illinois athletes and coaches to stay up to date with all virtual happenings here at SOILL.

Our Virtual Programming initiatives include eSports, Virtual Sports, and Virtual Learning. New Virtual Programing is continually being added, so check back here and on our social media channels.

eSports is organized, competitive video gaming where athletes and Unified Partners compete and participate in a variety of multiplayer games.
Virtual Sports is a unique experience for athletes, coaches, and families, providing a virtual opportunity for participants to highlight and improve their athletic skills.
Virtual Learning offers a calendar of programming that connects, engages and educates athletes, Unified Partners, coaches and families through classroom learning and action-based activities.

Morning Announcements

Be sure to tune in to our Monday Morning Announcements at the start of each week when one of our SOILL staff members gives you an overview of the Virtual Programming available for participation.
