2020 SONC & UNC-Wilmington Unified Sports Campus Recreation Basketball League

Special Olympics North Carolina has partnered with UNC-Wilmington to offer Unified Sports Basketball to UNC-Wilmington students and Special Olympics North Carolina athletes in New Hanover County and surrounding areas. In this recreation model of Unified Sports, assessment days are used to introduce the students (who will be Unified partners) and Special Olympics athletes and create teams to form a Unified Sports Basketball League. On competition days, each team will have at least one game (either at 6:00 p.m. or 7:00 p.m.). Teams will be seeded for playoffs based on their overall record during the competition days. A playoff day will determine the Intramural Recreation Unified Sports champion. UNC-Wilmington students must register through Campus Recreation and Special Olympics athletes should contact Brooke DeAmaral (newhanover@sonc.net). Please note that New Hanover County athletes must be between the ages of 18-30 to participate in this league. Below is the schedule for the league this season:
