Team Ireland will return to Dublin Airport tomorrow morning where a hero’s welcome is expected to take place.
Having just spent two weeks at this year’s Special Olympics World Games in LA, the 88 Irish athletes did phenomenally well, having won an incredible 86 medals across sports like soccer, basketball, gymnastics, badminton, bocce, athletics, table tennis and aquatics.
