The Northern Virginia Senior Olympics (NVSO) Registration Begins Now!

Fairfax Seniors Can Compete in Swimming & diving, track, basketball, tennis, cycling and more

The Northern Virginia Senior Olympics are for games that exercise the mind as well as the body

Registration for the 2019 Northern Virginia Senior Olympics, one of the region’s largest annual events for seniors, has begun at www.nvso.us. The 2019 games will take place Sept. 14 thru Sept. 28.
 
The NVSO was first held in 1982 with a little over 80 competitors. In 2018, more than 850 Northern Virginians took part in the games that exercise the mind as well as the body.
The 2019 NVSO will include more than 60 events. To qualify, competitors must be at least 50 years old by December 31, 2019, and reside in one of the NVSO’s sponsoring jurisdictions.
New this year is a flat registration fee of $15 that allows participants to compete in as many events as they choose with the exception of bowling, cycling, golf and orienteering, which do have additional charges. There will be no onsite or day-of event registration for any NVSO event.
