The CenTex Rockets team was founded by our current Head of Delegation, Charlotte Friemel, in 2014 with just five athletes. The team has always been based out of Georgetown, TX and has always welcomed athletes to join us.
Our dedicated team of volunteer coaches and leaders are passionate about helping young people achieve their full potential. We have a diverse group of individuals with a wide range of skills and experience, all united by a commitment to making a difference in the lives of youth.
The CenTex Rockets welcomes athletes of all ages between 8 and 99 and all disabilities. From our humble beginnings of just five athletes, we have grown to almost 100 on our roster.
We welcome you to join the team!

Your first step is to register as an athlete online with Special Olympics Texas.
You'll need to create an account for yourself if you are the athlete.
If you are the parent/guardian, please create your account first then register the athlete through your portal.

Once your registration is complete, please email us to let us know and be sure to include the name of the athlete.
We do NOT receive any notifications from SOTX and therefore we must receive communication from you in order to send you an official invitation to connect to the CenTex Rockets team in the portal.

We will notify you via email when the invitation is sent to you in the portal.
Please log back into the SOTX portal to approve the invitation. Once approved, the athlete may proceed with signing up for current sports.
***Note: The athlete is not official until this final step is complete

We have a private Facebook Group for our athletes, their parents/caregivers and coaches.
Once you have completed the steps above, you will be emailed a link to join the group.
Although we use email as the primary form of communication for the team, some information is shared via the group and is a great place to share photos and team events.
