00:00Well, Sport is for All and the Special Olympics Association of TNT is on the hunt for more athletes this year.
00:07In addition, they are also seeking financial support from kind individuals or businesses
00:12who are able to partly fund their participation in sporting events like a 5K.
00:18Special Olympics coach Claudia Francis says it's aligned with their objective of inclusion.
00:23So this year we're looking for anybody who's interested, you know, in giving our Special Olympics athletes a chance
00:32to be a part of some of the 5K races that it has available to show that, yes, we can be a part of this inclusion
00:42within Trinidad and Tobago where our athletes with a special disability or a special need
00:50can also take part in 5K races.
00:54She indicated they already take part in several different events
00:57and they continue to grow their athlete base in different sports.
01:02We focus right now, we want inclusion, right?
01:05And it has a lot of events that is taking place at previous throughout Trinidad and Tobago
01:12where inclusion is taking place, right?
01:16For instance, we had a unified basketball game just before Christmas.
01:25We had floorball, Special Olympics national games and floorball.
