The Massachusetts Amateur Sports Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that was established in 1982 to host the first sanctioned state games of the Commonwealth. It operates with the mission of promoting personal development, education, physical fitness, teamwork, and sportsmanship to Massachusetts citizens of all ages and abilities. The Foundation is recognized nationwide for holding
high-quality, Olympic-style events through the Bay State Summer and Winter Games, as well as educational programs including the High School Ambassador Program and Future Leaders Scholarship. With more than 6,000 athletes from 300 cities and towns directly participating in its programs each year, the Foundation is an integral part of the lives of citizens across the Commonwealth.
