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.
