Fall Tournament is SONC’s second largest state-level competition, taking place at venues in Charlotte and Concord. As Special Olympics athletes are not asked to pay for any of the cost associated with their participation, an event of this size requires a vast amount of resources, including the support of nearly 1,300 volunteers. Volunteer registration is still open online.

Athletes from the local area will be competing in the 2024 SONC Fall Tournament including participants from Johnston, Franklin, Nash, Wake and Wayne counties.

Admission to all SONC Fall Tournament competition events is free and open to the public.
