Athletes enter as individuals rather than as national teams. Entries are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis. There are no selection requirements, no standards and no reserved places for top athletes. Unlimited entries are allowed in sports that aren't facility-based, such as the marathon. Limits have been set for sports where facilities have obvious capacities. 3, record 1, English, - The%20Masters%20Games

Les athlètes s'inscrivent à titre individuel et non pas comme membres d'une équipe nationale. Pour ce qui est des inscriptions, les premiers arrivés sont les premiers servis. Il n'y a aucun critère de sélection, aucune norme ni aucune place réservée aux meilleurs athlètes. Les inscriptions sont illimitées dans les sports qui n'exigent pas d'installations, comme le marathon. Par contre, certaines limites ont été établies pour des sports avec des installations à capacité déterminée. 3, record 1, French, - Les%20Jeux%20des%20Ma%C3%AEtres
