The Rhode Island Senior Games (RISG) organization, established in 2004, has always been comprised of just a few dedicated unpaid volunteers trying to establish and maintain a senior sports program with an emphasis on promoting health and well-being for adults age 50 and over.

Great news … after a couple relatively dormant years, we are planning for several sporting events in 2024! Each of these sports requires a champion to help establish and manage the event, with the full support of RISG. We call these champions “Ambassadors”. So far we believe we have Ambassadors for Pickleball, Golf, Track & Field, Table Tennis, Basketball, and Bowling. And we hope to offer even more sporting events … if we can find Ambassadors.

So, we are looking for volunteers to act as sport-specific Ambassadors in Swimming, Tennis, Cornhole,  Softball, Shuffleboard, and Hockey… and we are open to other suggestions. If you are willing to help as an Ambassador, or if you have any general questions, please send an email to [email protected]
