Abstract: The study demonstrates the efficiency of sports competitions in the social integration of mentally disabled students. Aiming to achieve the research objectives, we formed two groups, each of 25 subjects, aged between 10 and 15, from the Special School no. 5. The experimental group participated in a series of competitive sports activities for students with special educational needs. After analyzing data on the level of social integration, we found that students who participated in competitive sporting activities achieved higher levels of social integration compared to students who did not participate in competitions of this kind.
