Motionball Marathon Supports Special Olympians
from Calgary News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
This Saturday, Calgary’s Mount Royal University kicks off the electrifying Motionball Marathon of Sport — a massive community event where hundreds of athletes and volunteers unite to raise over $175,000 for Special Olympics Canada. Teams compete in floor hockey and basketball alongside Special Olympics athletes, fostering unforgettable friendships and inclusion. Even if you can’t play, you can still volunteer, cheer, or try out the new inflatable game. Every dollar counts: 70% goes to Special Olympics Alberta, 25% to the national foundation, and 5% fuels the “No Good Way” campaign promoting inclusive language. Fundraisers like $500 for a volunteer coach or $750 for an athlete’s provincial trip make every contribution meaningful. And don’t forget — the gala’s coming in November, with early bird tickets hitting June 21st. It’s not just a game — it’s a movement.
