Sports

The Westmoreland County Senior Games is celebrating over 40 years of fun and fitness at Mammoth Park and several other central Westmoreland area locations May 7-17, 2024. Any person 50 years of age or older is eligible to participate in any of the 34 events. Westmoreland County residency is not required to participate in the events.

Registration for the Senior Games costs $10.  All pre-registered participants will receive a Senior Games t-shirt and a free picnic lunch at Mammoth Park on Thursday, May 9 and Monday, May 13. Participants can also register on-site at any event.

Events include high and low impact activities, such as bocce, bowling, canoeing, corn hole, cycling, darts, golf, horseshoes, running, pickle ball, shuffleboard, and swimming.  Many of the events will divide athletes into age brackets: 50-59, 60-69, 70-79, 80-89, and 90 plus. Medals are awarded to the top three finishers in each event and age bracket.  There is also an Awards Ceremony on Friday, May 17 honoring the year’s sportsmen and women as voted on by the athletes.

Since 1983, the slogan of the Westmoreland County Senior Games has been “Bring a Friend for Fun and Fitness.”  The Games are more about fun and fitness than serious competition, and one does not have to be a super athlete to participate. Most of the participants come for the camaraderie of the games and enjoy competing with friends and meeting new people. The ultimate goal of the games is to encourage an active lifestyle and continued participation in recreational activities beyond age 50. 

The Westmoreland County Senior Games are sponsored by UPMC For Life, Westmoreland County Area Agency on Aging, Allstar Therapies Inc., AMD3 Foundation and the Wellness Center for Bone and Joint Health, A+ Home Care, Cloverleaf Communities, Gulisek Construction, Somerset Trust Company, Senior Care Authority, Westmoreland County Housing Authority, and Westmoreland Manor. 

To request a registration booklet, call the Westmoreland County Bureau of Parks and Recreation at (724) 830-3950, or download one online by visiting the County Parks' website at www.co.westmoreland.pa.us/parks.
