Fall Tournament

Tentatively November 11-13, 2021

The Special Olympics North Carolina Fall Tournament is typically held in Charlotte in November. The event brings nearly 1,200 athletes from across the state together to compete in bocce, cycling, golf, roller skating, softball, soccer and tennis.

Bocce

Bocce originated in Italy and is very similar to lawn bowling or horseshoes!

Cycling was first introduced in 1990 and the first competition was held in the 1991 Fall Games in Raleigh.
