A word from Team Swedens HOD Finally we’re of to Austria! I believe Team Sweden are inspired, excited and expect a lot. First and formost we hope for the Games of a lifetime. But also for the world to see the games tremendous value. Through sports, Special Olympics showcase the skills and dignity of our athletes. And showing that impossible – is in the eye of the beholder. Special Olympics brings people together to take part in the transformative power of sports. Team Swedens athletes needed to overcome a lot to get here, the skills and performances have already inspired me. I’ve experienced it at training events and competitions. Pushing to beat their personal bests. Team Sweden already inspired many back home, now it’s time to try and inspire the world. No matter how the results sums up, I’m really looking forward to experience Team Sweden showing how to bee brave in the attempts. Go Sweden! Jonatan Sandberg
