The aging of population is a social phenomenon commonly observed in advanced countries. It causes various problems. Thus the aged problem must be approached from quality of life, which the elderly pursue instinctively regardless of their life cycle, and the utilization of their spare time or leisure hours. However, there have been research reports that, if the elderly participate in voluntary and active meaningful leisure, they can achieve successful adaptation to their aging and the life in their old age. In particular, we need to give our attention to the fact that, compared to other leisure activities, recreational sports make significant contributions to successful aging. When the aged participate in active leisure and recreational sports regularly, their satisfaction with spare time is enhanced and their loneliness is relieved, which resultantly brings high life satisfaction. This suggests that recreational sports activities enable the aged to achieve successful aging and contribute to the solution of the aged problem. In order to promote physical activity for aging population, we must utilize MINIMAX strategies.
