2015 motionball Marathon of Sport Kelowna

We Did Something Special on the Playing Field!

The 2015 motionball Marathon of Sport Kelowna presented by Interior Savings welcomed 19 Teams of young professionals to Spring Valley Middle School on Saturday June 20th in support of the Special Olympics Canada Foundation!

Participants enjoyed a fun day of athletic competition that saw motionball supporters compete alongside local Special Olympics British Columbia athletes in a variety of sports & activities including basketball, benchball, kickball, flag football, soccer, ultimate and volleyball!

The playing field wasn’t the only place where athletes competed. Each team of 10 participants raised a minimum of $1600 ($160 per person) through pledges. Thanks to their incredible fundraising efforts we raised $50,000 net in support of the Special Olympics Canada Foundation!
