STEP ONE:

Special Olympics Hamilton County provides year-round sports training and athletic competition in over 20 Olympic-type sports for children and adults with intellectual disabilities. Visit our Athletes Resources page to access the Athlete Application and Online Medical form.

 Through SOHC, athletes gain opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy, and share gifts, skills, and friendships with their families, other Special Olympics athletes, and the community. It’s a movement that impacts lives for the better. It’s an organization that needs you!

 Athletes must complete, sign, and submit 2 forms to become eligible for Special Olympics training, competition, and programming.  Submit the signed medical form using the Medical Form Submission link.

STEP TWO:

•The Medical Form requires a physical examination by a licensed medical examiner (not a nurse or EMT).

•The Special Olympics Indiana Medical Form must be used.  School or agency medical forms will NOT be accepted.

•The form is valid for 3 years from the date of the physician’s signature.  At the end of the 3 years, the health information section may be completed by a parent/guardian.  If major medical problems do not exist or develop, the athlete does not need to see the doctor again.

•Should there be any significant changes to the athlete’s health, the athlete must be re-examined by a licensed medical examiner (not a nurse or EMT).
