We are delighted to announce that the 2011 Bay Area Senior Games have been designated as the 2011 California State Championships. The 2012 State Championships will also be held in the San Francisco Bay Area and will be a qualifying event for the 2013 Summer National Senior Games in Cleveland.
The State Championships will be held March 26 – April 3 at terrific venues at Stanford, in the City of Palo Alto, and other locations in the San Francisco Bay Area. The Games are open to all athletes over the age of 50, no matter where you live.
The Games will feature NSGA recognized competitions in Archery, Badminton, Basketball, Bowling, Cycling, Golf, Horseshoes, Race Walk, Racquetball, 5K & 10K Road Race, Shuffleboard, Softball, Swimming, Table Tennis, Tennis, Track & Field, Triathlon, and Volleyball. We will also include Fencing, Lawn Bowling, Soccer and Water Polo.
In addition, we continue to have calls for other sports wanting to be included. Easy to do, but each sport needs a volunteer sports chair and committee to conduct the sport.
Register on line at www.bayareaseniorgames.org after September 1, 2010 or print out an entry blank (posted September 10) and mail. And of course, volunteers are welcome and very much needed. Volunteer shifts will be posted on October 15, 2010 also.
In response to the popularity of the 2010 HEALTH AND PEAK PERFORMANCE CONFERENCE we are planning another one-day Health & Peak Performance Conference at Stanford, featuring lectures by medical experts, training tips for experienced athletes and a luncheon discussion with Olympians. Complete details will be posted by October 15, 2010.
Finally, we are proud to offer a Sports Photography Workshop during the 2011 Games, which will provide sports photographers access to the field of play. Students will produce action images for review, and the class will produce an on line portfolio as a final project. Images may be used in future Senior Games printed material and web site. Please register here.
See you all at the 2011 Senior Games.
Happy Training
