Qualifying for the 2023 National Senior Games
Athletes must compete in 2022 Florida Senior Games to qualify for 2023 National Senior Games. The last three years have presented a wealth of opportunities for National Senior Games qualification. Those were all for the 2022 National Senior Games in Fort Lauderdale.
For the 2023 National Senior Games, July 7-18, 2023, in Pittsburgh, PA, you must turn in a qualifying performance at the 2022 Florida Senior Games, in Florida’s Sports Coast/ Pasco County. The 2024 Florida Senior Games, in Pasco County, will be a qualifier for the 2025 National Senior Games, at a location yet to be announced.

Dominos and Racquetball are in Broward County
Two events will be held outside of Pasco County with Dominos and Racquetball being contested in Broward County. Both events will be held the first weekend of the 2022 Florida Senior Games.
Racquetball will be played at the David Posnack Jewish Community Center, in Davie, on Saturday, December 3 and Sunday, December 4. The facility hosted the 2019 and 2021 Florida Senior Games, as well as the 2022 National Senior Games.
The City of Lauderdale Lakes, Multi-Purpose Room, located across from the City Hall Building, hosts the 2022 Florida Senior Games Dominos Tournament, on Sunday, December 4.
Look for 5K Road Race and Cycling Locations to be Announced Soon
With the addition of the Racquetball and Dominos locations to the calendar, it leaves only the 5K Road Race, Race Walk and Power Walk and the Cycling Time Trials and Road Race locations left to be announced.
Those locations have been identified and permits are being finalized since both events involve closing of streets. Keep checking the respective sports pages for updates.
Partner Finder and Team Finder is Available
Athletes in need of a partner, or wishing to secure a spot on a team, for the 2022 Florida Senior Games, have the ability to do so through the Partner and Team Finder links on each of the following sports pages:
Badminton, 3-on-3 Basketball, Bowling, Team Bowling, Pickleball, Racquetball, Table Tennis, Tennis and Volleyball. It is the responsibility of the athlete to make contact with other athletes. The Florida Senior Games staff, or Sports Directors will not put together teams or form partnerships, or assign partners onsite at the Games.

Registered Athletes Listings on Each Individual Sports Pages
We know athletes like to know who their competition will be on the field of play. They also want to know which of their friends from other areas of the state will be at the Games.
With that in mind, a link to the list of registered athletes has been added to each individual sports page on www.floridaseniorgames.com. The listing is updated in real-time.
We look forward to seeing you in Florida's Sports Coast/Pasco County, in December. The 2022 Florida Senior Games, presented by Humana, is an annual program of the Florida Sports Foundation, the official sports promotion and development organization of the State of Florida, and held in conjunction with Florida's Sports Coast.
