History and Purpose
The Tennessee Senior Olympics began in 1981 with a mission that has continued for over 25 years: to promote healthy lifestyles for senior adults through fitness, sports and an active involvement in life. The Senior Olympics encourages olderadults to stay active, and gives them a reason to renew past skills or learn new ones.
Key Goals
Maintain and improve the health and wellness of Tennessee's seniors
Provide a competitive athletic, recreational and creative experience for seniors
Provide an opportunity for socialization for seniors from across the state
Every year, thousands of senior adults compete in sanctioned district games held across the state. The top fourfinalists are eligible to advance to the State Senior Olympics held in July of each year.
