Incorporated in 1992 as a 501(c)3 non-profit agency, the San Diego Senior Games Association (SDSGA) is a community-based organization whose mission is to:  “Encourage senior adults, aged 50 or older, to carry on vigorous lives by developing and maintaining high levels of physical activity and mental fitness through regular participation in sports, fitness, and health education activities.”

     The San Diego Senior Games is the only organization in San Diego that offers older adults the opportunity to compete in multiple Olympic-style sporting events.  Athletes compete in age categories of five-year increments:  50-54, 55-59, 60-64, 65-69, 70-74, 75-79, 80-84, 85-89, 89-94, 94-99, etc.

     The National Senior Games Association recognizes 19 Sports, however each region can have additional exhibition sports to include more athletes.  Winners of exhibition games receive a medal and a T-shirt, but cannot advance to the state or national games.  Athletes finishing first, second, or third in their age group, receive a gold, silver or bronze medal, respectively.

     Please call 858-292-5812 to learn more about volunteer opportunities that can be customized to meet your schedule.
