National and International Sports

The CF Sports program, overseen by PSP, plays a prominent role in promoting fitness and good health within the military community. At every base and wing, there are intersection, intramural or local sporting events for all levels of athletes. Regional level winners go on to compete at one of the 15 CF National Sports Championships held throughout the year. On the international scene, in 2002/2003, the CFPSA funded approximately 200 military athletes

participating around the world in the competitions of Conseil international du sport militaire (CISM), an international military sports organization with 123 member countries.

In 2002/2003, CFPSA continued its tradition of honouring military CF athletes at the CF Sports Award Ceremony. Held this year at the Ottawa Congress Centre, more than 300 athletes, officials and coaches attended.
