"Let me win, but if I cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt."
That's the motto of Special Olympics, whose athletes strive everyday to do the best they can, regardless of disability.
This weekend, Special Olympics Georgia's masters bowling tournament was held in Warner Robins. The tournament was for athletes ages 22 and up.
Over 800 participated across the three-day event. Competitors are scored against athletes of similar ability levels.
Organizers will tell you it's not about winning and losing, but the athletes tell a different story.
"Im'ma keep moving on and going and going until I get all the way to the top," says Nathaniel Price.
"Yeah, Imma be a big winner, son. I got courage, I got hope," says Lewis Gordon, who rolled three strikes to open up the round. "I felt good. It felt good that I did that, because I practice all the time at Jac's Bowling Lanes in Valdosta. That's what I do."
The Georgia fall Special Olympics games will be held in October in Gainseville.
