Pro Life Campaign Congratulates "Outstanding Achievements" of Team Ireland

Team Ireland has had one of the most successful World Games ever in taking home a quite remarkable 86 medals. That is 26 gold, 29 silver and 31 bronze. The sheer will and determination of our athletes has been an inspiration to us all and it truly shows the very best qualities of the human spirit.

It takes a huge effort to have made these achievements possible and it is only right to mention all those volunteers, family members, coaches, friends, sponsors etc. Without their dedication and sacrifices none of this would be possible.

Ireland has shown itself to be a world leader when it comes to the Special Olympics which shows Ireland in the best possible light in terms of the respect and inclusiveness shown to all members of our society. Congratulations to all of our athletes and a huge thank you to all those who have made this one of the most successful Special Olympics World Games ever.
