Q: Where can I find the rules for the sports competitions? A: The Golden Age Games Guidelines will be available on the Golden Age Games website by November/December of the previous competition year. Q: How can I train year-round for the event? A: Athletes should understand the rules of each sport and practice in preparation for the Golden Age Games. Athletes may train independently or may be part of a VA team training with their Golden Age Games Coach. Athletes who are not currently part of a team may want to contact their local VA Medical Center ’s physical medicine and rehabilitation department and ask for the recreation therapy team to assist with local sports/adaptive sports opportunities.

Athletes may also reach out to local YMCAs, gyms, and/or adaptive sport clubs to inquire about equipment/support to assist you with training for your competitions.
