Sarah Dereski

Hi! I’m Sarah, and I’m part of Team Ontario in Bocce! I was introduced to Special Olympics 12 years ago through the Law Enforcement Torch Run.

Coaching in Special Olympics has become so much more than just teaching sport — it’s about learning from athletes and building community. One of my proudest moments has been watching athletes grow and succeed through their dedication.

Being part of Team Ontario is an absolute honour.

My advice? Train hard, do your best, and be proud and humble in everything you do.
