US Army

About

In the All-Army Sports Program, Soldiers from Active Duty, Reserve and National Guard compete in a variety of sports at the highest levels to include Armed Forces, USA Nationals and Military World Games. They support Soldier readiness and well-being through athletic performance, military bearing and competitive spirit. Participants in the All Army Sports Program are called Soldier-Athletes because they must be Soldiers first and outstanding athletes second. Soldier-Athletes represent the Army in Armed Forces Sports Championships and national and international competitions. The Army Sports Program is a short-term opportunity that may last between four days and up to three months, depending on your sport and whether you’re selected for higher competition.
