Welcome to the Special Olympics in Northern Virginia Coaching Manual. We hope that you find many items of interest, whether you are an experienced coach or a brand new coach with no idea where to start. Good coaches are the lifeblood of any sporting organization – Special Olympics is no exception. At all age and skill levels, Special Olympics coaches are volunteers. Playing experience is not a requirement for coaching; however, good sportsmanship, a desire to learn the sport and time to attend practice and games are necessary. The manual was created to give insight into the requirements that must be fulfilled to have an enjoyable coaching experience in Special Olympics.
