Guilford County/High Point

Welcome to Special Olympics Guilford/High Point!  Special Olympics in High Point is offered through High Point Parks & Recreation.  Due to the large number of eligible athletes in Guilford County, there is also a Guilford/Greensboro program.

Athletes cannot train without qualified coaches. We currently need coaches in all sports. Volunteers interested in helping with local competitions, coaching and/or serving on Special Olympics committees should contact Stephanie Hedgecock.
