Competition is organized into divisions by players’ age. Anyone age 90 or older pays no registration or entry fees.
Doubles and mixed doubles players need to get their own partners prior to registering for bowling, pickleball, table tennis and tennis. If you need a partner, browse the Partner and Team Page on the AISG website. If you don’t find someone, you can submit your information for others to find. This is also where to find teammates for 3-on-3 basketball.
Not into sports? The Games are always in need of volunteers.
