Team Chicago is looking for players 50 and over to participate in the 2006 Gay Games in Chicago. For the first time ever the Gay Games have included Senior Division competitions in basketball and softball as well as volleyball for both men and women. (Basketball will also feature an over-35 category.)
The rules and regulations are adapted for seniors and mirror those of the Senior Olympics. If there are not enough teams registered for the new divisions, senior teams will compete in the recreation/novice divisions.
Those currently involved in sports or those who have played in the past are welcome to help form teams. Contact Team Chicago at (312) 409-5155 or visit www.teamchicago.org. Seniors in other sports such as biking, running and tennis may sign up directly at www.gaygameschicago.org, (773) 907-2006.
