​While all athletes must be over the age of 50

-- and some can even be found who have crested the honourable age of 100(!) --

many could likely out-run / out-hoop / out-strike / out-swim... the average 21st Century teen!

This senior, at the age of 92, gracefully executed a flip turn in the swim competition! 

Yes--we said ninety-two years old !

Seniors gather from all over Alaska, Canada, Hawaii and the Lower 48.

Many return year after year to enjoy friendly competition,

often amongst many different sports & regardless of athletic level.
