Experience the joy of Special Olympics as the head coach for our bocce team! Head coaches lead and organize their team of athletes and volunteers to create a comprehensive sport training program. While bocce knowledge/experience is helpful, we also offer coach training opportunities and resources.

We currently don't have a bocce team in Carbon County, but we have athletes who are interested in participating! We hope to work with you to start up a small bocce team in the area.

Volunteers are asked to complete our registration form and background check. For more information or to register, please reach out to us at volunteer@specialolympicspa.org. Thank you!

Mission Statement

The mission of Special Olympics is to provide year-round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults with intellectual disabilities, giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills and friendship with their families, other Special Olympics athletes and the community.

Athletes -- Over 16,000 children and adults with intellectual disabilities or closely related developmental disabilities participate in over 300 local, sectional and state events. Athletes range in age from 8 to 80 and are of all ability levels.
