WHAT ARE THE ALABAMA STATE GAMES?
The Alabama State Games, founded in 1982 at the request of the U.S. Olympic Committee, have been a cornerstone of amateur athletics in the state for over four decades. What started in 1983 with just four sports and 600 athletes has grown into a massive multi-sport event, featuring 20+ competitions across multiple venues. Open to athletes of all ages and skill levels, the Games kick off with a high-energy Opening Ceremony, setting the tone for a weekend of competition and camaraderie. More than just sports, the Games promote academic success, healthy living, and community spirit. A standout feature is the scholarship initiative—athletes who register and attend the Opening Ceremony are entered into a drawing, with over $470,000 in scholarships awarded since its inception. The Alabama State Games aren’t just about competition—they’re about opportunity, growth, and building a brighter future through sports.
This is not just your run of the mill weekend tournament. The Alabama State Games - from start to finish - are an event complete with an Opening Ceremony (on June 12 at Legacy Arena) and medals being given to the top three teams in each age group.
