The program includes individual and pair activities. Among the options are checkers, table tennis, athletics, bocce, bozó, dominoes, mesh, snooker and truco point above.

Competitors will be separated according to age. The first range brings together participants aged 60 to 66; the second, from 67 to 76 years old; and the third is intended for those aged 77 or over.

In some sports — dominoes, truco point above, snooker and mesh — it will also be possible to form mixed pairs. The winners of the male and mixed categories in these disputes will be able to represent Campo Grande in the State Games for the Elderly.

In addition to promoting sport and meetings between people of the same age group, JOMI works as a selection process to define the Capital's representatives in the state competition.

To enter the dispute, you must live in Campo Grande, Anhanduí or Rochedinho for at least three months.

Interested parties can register through associations, clubs, companies, educational institutions and public bodies. Those who prefer can also register individually, both for individual modalities and for doubles competitions.
