Description
This research was conducted in order to clarify the factors regulating the effects of local sport participation on the QOL for the elderly and its relationship with the QOL of their family members. Subjects were a group of the elderly who lived in Sennan District of Miyagi Prefecture and who were affiliated with their local senior citizen's clubs. After having explained about the survery, two types of questionnaires were distributed to and collected later from the group of elderly and each of their family members. The total number of questionnaires collected was 560. In this study, it was demonstrated that, through the participation in local sport activities, the elderly people could gain a higher level of QOL, better human relations and good health. In order to develop the QOL of the elderly, it is necessary to analyze the obstacles restricting the elderly people's sport participation and to establish environments in which they can easily enjoy sports. It seems that one of the tasks for local communities is to establish a supporting system for the sport clubs which could tie together each community and bring generations together through organized local sport activities.
