We’re happy you asked, as our community has something for everyone. Cleveland is as bold and passionate as the Pan-American Masters Games is active and proud. While the event embodies the spirit of perseverance, vigor, health and vitality at any stage in life, “The Land” (as it’s nicknamed) has many of these qualities.

• Staying active is important for residents and visitors alike. Since PAMG is hosted during our summer months, we encourage exploring the outdoors in a city-centric adventure or an experience on a larger scale to stay healthy and active, no matter your age.
• Balance is especially important for athletes — there’s a time to work and a time to play. Cleveland has a variety of delicious places to eat and drink.

Our main goal of the 2024 PAMG – Cleveland is fun. However, we do want to recognize each individual athlete or team who has shown incredible athleticism. Each sport will feature medals based on age, competition and final results.

Further information on each sport’s awards and qualifications will be available on individual sports pages when they become available.

Each individual sport may require certain equipment depending on the discipline. While we don’t enforce a specific dress code, we do ask that you be mindful of others, including personal preferences and cultures. Additionally, we ask that everyone refrain from offensive or derogatory messaging on their person.

Please ensure you have equipment secured for your specific discipline. As an example, for tennis, please secure your racquet. More information on each sport’s required equipment will be available on each individual sports page soon.
