Styrian Championships Special Olympics Athletes

On May 6th, starting at 9:00 AM, the Stocksporthalle Seiersberg will become a sporting meeting point for lived inclusion. For the 29th time, the Styrian Stock Championships of the Special Olympics will take place here, a special day for athletes with intellectual disabilities. More than 100 participants from all over Styria will demonstrate the precision, concentration, and team spirit that this traditional sport embodies. Whether in target shooting or team competitions, it’s not just the results that matter, but especially the shared journey to get there.

The tournament is organized by the ISGS–Austria association in close collaboration with local stocksport clubs and volunteers from the region. Spectators are warmly welcomed and will experience firsthand what sporting enthusiasm truly means. The Stocksporthalle Seiersberg is easily accessible and also offers space for school classes and groups. Food and refreshments will be provided on-site.

The event is part of the inclusive sports movement in the Graz experience region and shows year after year how sports connect people across generations and life worlds. It’s a must-attend event for anyone who values community and wants to experience sporting fairness up close.
