  Note: In 2009, the National Senior Games Association is adding soccer as a Demonstration Sport. This means that teams do not have to qualify; they can register and come. The format is not decided but it looks to be 8-a-side, "half" fields, 20 or 30 minute halves. The National Games are in the San Francisco area, August 1 to 15, 2009. If there is enough interest, soccer will be added as a regular sport at the National level.
