There are three age categories at the Games: Junior, Open and Masters. In all categories athletes can play-up (i.e. play in an older age category) but cannot play down.
Junior – Juniors are athletes 18 years of age and under as of December 31, 2023 (birth years for junior athletes for the Games for most sports are athletes born between 2005-2008).
Open – The Open competition is the main event at the Games. Open athletes are 19 years and older at the time of the Games. This age category is for high level athletes who have qualified to make the teams. Generally, the Open category consists of athletes who are in their 20’s and in some cases may include talented Junior and Masters age athletes.
Masters – Masters athletes are 35 years and older at the Games (Golf masters are 50+). Within the Masters tournament many sports are divided into sub-categories based on age.
* Junior and Masters age athletes who have qualified and been selected to participate in an Open sport are considered Open athletes and will be governed by the Open policies.
