The Good Life Games is an all-volunteer, non-profit 501c3 corporation. We are dedicated to qualifying seniors to participate in the Florida Senior Games, where they can qualify for the National Senior Games. We partner with businesses and cities in Pinellas County to provide venues and volunteers.
Our annual competitions take place in February, March, and April. The Florida Senior Games offer various sports, including archery, badminton, basketball, bowling, cycling, golf, pickleball, swimming, table tennis, tennis, track & field, and more. The National Senior Games feature similar sports and also include non-ambulatory games such as bowling, cornhole, and shuffleboard.
In addition to the existing events, we are actively seeking Event Directors for dance competitions, tai chi, lawn bowling, and Texas Hold'em. If you have a passion for any of these activities and would like to contribute to our event, we would love to have you join our team.
We are also seeking sponsors who are interested in marketing to active seniors. If you are interested in supporting our cause and reaching this vibrant demographic, we would be thrilled to discuss sponsorship opportunities with you.
To make these games a success, we rely on the support of Recreation Centers, Sports Clubs, Coaches, Trainers, and Athletes who step forward and become Good Life Games Event Directors.
Lastly, we seek dedicated leaders to join our Board of Directors. If you are interested in an active senior community and willing to contribute your expertise, we invite you to join the Good Life Games.

The Good Life Games
Good Life Games of Pinellas County and twenty other Regional Florida Senior Games create a series of year-round competitive events, for athletes age 50 and over, culminating at the annual Florida Senior Games State Championships that are held each year in December.
The twenty-one regional competitions begin in January and occur throughout Florida except for May, June, July, August, and December. To participate in qualifying state events participation in one of the twenty-one regional events is required. Open events do not require qualifying at a regional site. All twenty-one of the regional competitions are sanctioned by the Florida Sports Foundation, the official sports organization for the State of Florida, to qualify participants for state-level competition. The Florida Sports Foundation (FSF) and the Florida Senior Games State Championships are members of the National Senior Games Association (NSGA).
National Senior Games are held throughout the country on a rotating bases every two years in the odd-numbered years for the qualifiers in the State Games in the even-numbered years. The National Senior Games offers competition in eighteen sports. Participating athletes must be fifty years old or older and must qualify in an NSGA-sanctioned State Senior Games in order to compete. The top state finishers in the odd-numbered years do not advance to the national games.
The Florida Sports Foundation defines a "limited" event as one in which an athlete may not find suitable opportunities for qualification at a Florida Local Senior Games Qualifier. Softball and Volleyball are considered "Limited" events. In order to qualify in a "Limited" event, one must register for that event at a sanctioned Florida Local Senior Games Qualifier. If competition is not available, an athlete may request to be included as qualified by that Florida Local Senior Games Qualifier for which they registered.
