The Army Recovery Care Program has announced the members of Team Army who will compete at the 2026 Warrior Games in San Antonio, Texas, June 13-20.

Hosted by the U.S. Army’s Transformation and Training Command, approximately 200 service members and qualifying veterans from across the United States will compete in Paralympic-style adaptive sporting events.

The friendly competition fosters camaraderie and highlights competitors’ ability to recover, adapt and overcome, reflecting the Warrior Ethos and the resilience of wounded, ill and injured Soldiers.

Team Army is comprised of 40 wounded, ill and injured Soldiers and veterans whose strength and perseverance reflect the Army’s commitment to readiness and recovery through adaptive sports.

Established in 2010, the Warrior Games is a national annual military adaptive sports competition that celebrates the valor, recovery, and resilience of wounded, ill, and injured service members and qualifying veterans, using the power of the Games to drive healing, empowerment, and renewed purpose.

Service members and veterans from the Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, Space Force, Coast Guard, and Special Operations Command will compete in the 2026 Warrior Games.
