The Lismore Masters Games is a much-loved multi-sport event that gives mature-age athletes the chance to stay active, compete and connect through the sports they love.
Now in its 13th edition, the biennial Lismore Masters Games features a diverse line-up of nine exciting sports: Netball, Softball, Lawn Bowls, Oztag, Football (11-a-side), Cricket, Baseball, Golf and Hockey. Whether you’re in it to win or simply playing for the fun of it, there’s something for everyone on and off the field.
But the Games are about more than just sport. A vibrant social program, complete with live bands and entertainment, has become a signature part of the experience, bringing competitors, supporters and officials together in celebration.
This year, more than 1000 athletes are expected to take part, making the 13th biennial Games one of regional Australia’s largest and most spirited Masters events.
Since its debut in 1999, the Lismore Masters Games has grown into a highlight on the local sporting calendar, drawing in passionate players from all walks of life for a weekend of competition, camaraderie and community. As the sporting heart of the Northern Rivers, Lismore is proud to host another unforgettable Games.
More details will be released closer to the event. In the interim, if you have any questions, please email the team at legends@lismore.nsw.gov.au.
