Senior athletes train with discipline and purpose — and for 20 years, Humana, Inc. has matched that commitment as presenting sponsor of the National Senior Games.
CLEARWATER, Fla. – The National Senior Games Association announced Wednesday that Humana will return as the presenting sponsor of the 2027 and 2029 National Senior Games, a biennial multi-sport championship for athletes ages 50 and over.
The 2027 National Senior Games presented by Humana will be held in Tulsa, Oklahoma, from June 30 to July 11, 2027. The event is expected to draw more than 12,500 participants to compete in 28 sports. In 2029, The Games will be hosted in Birmingham, Alabama.
“We’re grateful for Humana’s unwavering partnership in promoting active aging and providing a platform for older adults to compete on the national stage,” said Susan Hlavacek, NSGA President & CEO. “As we celebrate the 40th anniversary of The Games, we are excited to foster the continued growth of senior athletics with Humana’s support.”
The National Senior Games is part of the broader Senior Games movement, which champions physical activity and social connection through local, state and national level events.
“For more than two decades, Humana has been inspired by the athletes of the National Senior Games. Their dedication reflects the heart of Humana’s purpose: helping people achieve their best health through physical, mental and social well-being,” said David Dintenfass, Humana’s President of Enterprise Growth. “We’re honored to support a community that shows us what is possible when passion, resilience and connection guide the way.”
Sports offered at the event continue to expand, providing opportunities for a wide range of athletes to participate. New to the lineup for 2027 are bocce, climbing, flag football, dance and shooting.
Many National Senior Games sports require qualification through a 2026 State Senior Games, while select sports are open to all adults ages 50+. Learn more at NSGA.com.
