Welcome to Nevada Senior Games! We offer Olympic style events that demonstrate the positive aspects of aging and provide motivation and inspiration for our community’s seniors. Since 1980 our Games have provided an opportunity for people in the second half of their lives to be competitive athletes and have assisted seniors in reaching their health and fitness goals. These goals, along with personal recognition and the camaraderie of like-minded participants, are key components for maintaining independent lifestyles.
Senior athletes come from all over the state and country to participate in our multi-sport competition aimed specifically for adults age 50 and over. The Fall Games take place in September and October featuring competition in about 20 sports. In the Spring NSG holds Volleyball (Henderson) and Softball (Mesquite) tournaments. Many athletes advance to NSGA competitions, held in varied locations throughout the United States every other year. NSG also holds a year-round walking program.
