N2 - Special Olympics is the world's largest sports organization for people with intellectual disabilities. At the Special Olympics World Games 2019, Special Olympics Germany was represented by two handball teams: a Women's Traditional team and a Unified team (consisting of people with and without disabilities). The members of both teams were selected from several applicants at various try-outs and then prepared in training camps for the World Games. These processes were evaluated by way of participant observations and guideline-based interviews with the players and coaches. The results reveal that the participants without disabilities find themselves caught between the conflicting priorities of desire for sporting success and social support.
