The Goals of the Sooner State Summer Games
are Simple but Important:

• To help develop Oklahoma's amateur athletic talent into potential Olympians
• To bring recognition to gifted Oklahoma athletes and their communities
• To provide an opportunity for all Oklahomans to enjoy the benefits of sports played in the spirit of the Olympic creed, which states, "the most significant thing is not winning, but taking part."
• To promote the Olympic ideal at the grass-roots community level.
