Intramural Sports - Varsity Sports Program offers Soldiers a chance to showcase their talents by becoming a part of a Varsity/Post-level Sports Team.
The Varsity Sports Program is a Soldier-driven program in which teams are formed and supported through Fort Polk MWR and provide superior Soldier athletes the opportunity to compete in higher level competitions such as regional tournaments or All Armed Forces Championships. If the demand exists to form a specific sports team, MWR Intramural Sports recruits coaches, coordinates facilities and tryouts, and may fund some team expenses as funding permits. Additionally, Fort Polk MWR provides administrative assistance to teams up to and including marketing requests, permissive TDY requests, travel arrangements, and other team needs. Examples of teams that may be supported are softball, basketball, Army Ten Miler, soccer, fishing, or rugby. This list is not exhaustive, please contact your Varsity Sports Coordinator to discuss other possibilities.
These teams are open to Active Duty, Reserves or National Guard in active status.
Many newcomers to Fort Polk are amazed at the depth and variety of competitive sport opportunities offered here.
