The 2023 New Hampshire Senior Games are Officially Underway!
Manchester, NH, March 9, 2023 – The New Hampshire Senior Games is all set to return with a bang in 2023, following a successful 2022 season that brought together athletes and spectators from across the state and beyond. As we look forward to another season of exciting sports and thrilling competitions, it's time to reflect on the past year and celebrate the achievements of our athletes.
The 2022 New Hampshire Senior Games were a resounding success, thanks in no small part to the hard work and dedication of our sponsors and volunteers. We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all those who contributed their time, expertise, and resources to make the New Hampshire ate Senior Games a success. Our sponsors, including many local businesses, organizations, and individuals, provided support that allowed us to host a top-quality event. Their generosity and commitment to the senior community are truly inspiring, and we are grateful for their partnership. Our volunteers, too, played a crucial role in the success of the 2022 Games. They worked tirelessly to ensure that athletes and spectators alike had a smooth and enjoyable experience. Their dedication is a testament to the spirit of this community that the National Senior Games embody.
Of course, none of this would have been possible without the athletes themselves. The 2022 Games saw a record number of participants in many sports, each of whom gave it their all and showcased their talent and determination. From the basketball court to the bowling alley, the track to the tennis court, the competition was fierce and the spirit of sportsmanship was strong.
We would like to congratulate all the outstanding athletes who participated in the 2022 season and thank them for their hard work and dedication. It was truly a pleasure to watch them compete and excel in their respective sports.
