Winter Sports Update -Monday, February 14, 2022

NO team basketball, skills or snow this year

I don’t believe this is unexpected news.

While COVID numbers have, thankfully, been decreasing substantially and quicker than originally expected – it was not soon enough to salvage Team Basketball, Basketball Skills, or Snowshoe racing (although snowshoe racing needs more snow and less COVID as well).

So we thank all who patiently waited for the hoped for weekly call about the sports – the waiting is over. 

There will be NO Team Basketball this year, no Snowshoe racing and no Basketball Skills.  We await the 2023 season.

There are still COVID protocols to follow – SOWI, facility and governmental – and these will affect the upcoming sports season.

Winter Sports Update – Thursday, February 4, 2022

There will be no practices until further notice.

We are pleased that the COVID numbers are coming down across the state, but the county numbers are not yet within the range allowed for Special Olympics activities.  So, probably as no surprise, there will be no practices until further notice.  This would be no team basketball, no basketball skills and no snowshoeing (of course, we’d prefer snow for that anyway.)

Also at this time, we have to admit that we are uncertain whether we will be able to start swimming this month as we normally would.  With COVID numbers still up and we are waiting to hear from Brown Deer school about what new guidelines they have put into place since this latest surge.  There are also SOWI guidelines about crossing county boundaries with differing county COVID numbers.  Sorry, but assume no swimming practices until we pass on the word that we are good – when we can, we should be back on Tuesday’s at Brown Deer High/Middle School.

Hope for the best – we hope to continue in this trend towards improvement.

Winter Sports Update – Thursday, January 27, 2022

The COVID numbers are, thankfully, going down but, unfortunately are not yet at a level for SOWI to allow for practices, etc.

So there will be NO practices for at least one more week – no team basketball, no basketball skills, no snowshoeing. So earliest maybe Monday February 6th. Watch for another update next Thursday.

And, following the trend, there is NO team basketball competition on February 7th as had been scheduled.

Please stay healthy and safe – for yourself and family and friends

Winter Sports Update – Thursday, January 20, 2022

Based on SOWI COVID protocols and supplied information, the entire Region 8 (and all of the state) have COVID numbers higher than acceptable for Special Olympics practices or activities.

Therefore, there will be NO practices (team basketball, basketball skills, or snowshoeing) for at least another week.  The earliest possible date would be Monday, January 31st.  We will hopefully have updated information a week from today.

There is NO team basketball invitational the end of this month. We will pass on any information as soon as we have received it.

Please stay healthy and safe – for yourself and family and friends
