"Life is a Party!" says Sanobar in TAJIKISTAN

(27 June 2009)

My name is Halilova Sanobar and I am 14 years old. I live in Hatlon Oblast in southern Tajikistan. I study at a special school. 

I consider Special Olympics to be the party of my life. I participated in the Special Olympics Central Asian Games in Almaty, the 2007 Special Olympics World Summer Games at the Shanghai (Athletics) and the Special Olympics Youth Games (Athletics) in Rome.   I have participated in many local and national competitions in Athletics, Football and Basketball. But my favorite sport is Athletics. I hope to participate in many more. 

I am happy to be part of Special Olympics Tajikistan.
