AIR FORCE ATHLETICS

MISSION AND VISION

MISSION To develop leaders of character through athletic experiences.

AIR FORCE ACADEMY

HISTORY

In 1948, a board of leading civilian and military educators was appointed to plan the curriculum for an academy that would meet the needs of the newly established Air Force. The board determined that Air Force requirements could not be met by expanding the other service academies and recommended an Air Force Academy be established without delay. In 1949, then Secretary of the Air Force W. Stuart Symington appointed a commission to assist in selecting a site and on April 1, 1954, President Dwight D. Eisenhower authorized creation of the United States Air Force Academy. After considering 580 sites in 45 states, the commission narrowed the choice to three locations. The summer of 1954, Secretary of the Air Force Harold Talbott selected a site near Colorado Springs, Colo. Colorado contributed $1 million toward purchase of the property. In July 1955, the first Academy class entered interim facilities at Lowry Air Force Base, Denver, while construction began. It was sufficiently completed for occupancy by the cadet wing in late August 1958. Initial construction cost was $142 million. Women entered the Academy on June 28, 1976, as members of the class of 1980.

LEADERSHIP The Academy’s mission is “to educate, train and inspire men and women to become officers of character motivated to lead the United States Air Force in service to our Nation.” The Academy’s Center for Character and Leadership Development (CCLD) is at the heart of accomplishing that mission. CCLD helps align academic, athletic and military efforts—for faculty and staff and across all four years of the Academy course of instruction—to develop leaders of character. The Academy aims to graduate lieutenants and sustain an Academy that will exemplify the Air Force’s core values: Integrity First – Service Before Self – Excellence in All We Do. Upon graduation, each cadet receives a Bachelor of Science degree and a commission as a second lieutenant in the Air Force.

ACADEMICS At the U.S. Air Force Academy, our rigorous academic program balances Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) with the arts and humanities. Our robust core curriculum places cadets at the intersection of these disciplines, generating opportunities to cultivate and apply creative and complex problem-solving abilities. This challenging yet rewarding academic program continues to garner national recognition. We offer 31 majors and 4 minors, unique research opportunities and a variety of post-graduate scholarships. Our faculty and staff are dedicated to developing cadets as officers and scholars, stoking intellectual curiosity and a commitment to life-long learning. This academic program is woven into the broader fabric of the Academy and its programs in character and leadership development, athletics and airmanship. Academy graduates are well-equipped with

the knowledge, skills, and responsibilities necessary to serve the Air Force and the nation as leaders of character. Research is a staple of our educational program, with increasingly diverse interdisciplinary programs encompassing more than 24 research centers and institutes. Research significantly enhances the cadet learning experience by providing rich, independent learning opportunities and fostering the critical thinking skills necessary to succeed as leaders in the Air Force and beyond.

AIRMANSHIP A core part of the United States Air Force Academy experience involves flying. From instruction in concepts of flight, navigation and operations to real-life application of these principles via soaring and parachuting courses, there are no shortage of opportunities to experience a different altitude. The 306th Flying Training Group provides oversight and management of these programs, involving 2,500 cadets each year. Most fourth-class cadets get their first exposure to airmanship during Introduction to soaring, which includes four glider flights culminating in the opportunity for basic aerobatics. Third-class cadets can enroll in basic soaring and have the chance to solo pilot a glider. Cadets who meet the necessary physical requirements may choose to take an elective course in free-fall parachuting. Completing five free-fall parachute jumps earns cadets the Air Force basic military jump wings. Cadets may have the opportunity to participate in powered flight during their second-class year or during the summer before their first-class year. Cadets interested in precision flight and with a FAA Private Pilot Certificate may apply to become part of the Academy’s Flying Team.

ATHLETICS Participation in athletics fosters initiative, teamwork and the will to win – attributes critical to the development of cadets into leaders of character. All cadets at the United States Air Force Academy are required to participate in the athletic program, which includes: physical education (PE) courses, physical fitness testing and competitive sports. PE is an integral part of the Academy’s core curriculum, and is critical to the overall development of the U.S. Air Force Academy Institutional Outcomes. Cadets also take physical fitness tests each semester to measure overall strength and conditioning. The fitness-testing program promotes maximum fitness within the Cadet Wing, develops a foundation for a lifetime of fitness and recognizes cadets who excel in maintaining their personal fitness. In addition to PE courses and the required fitness tests, every cadet participates in competitive sports by playing on an intercollegiate club or intramural team.

CAPITAL PROJECTS FROM PRIVATE SUPPORT

FOOTBALL STADIUM LOCKER ROOMS NEW AND IMPROVED Over the past three years, Falcon Stadium has undergone a few visible improvements. Funded through the AFAAC, the main floor of the Blue and Silver Club underwent a $1.4M renovation prior to the 2016 season. Two new video boards, an improved sound system, ribbon boards and a marquee on Stadium Boulevard were installed the following year at a combined total of $3.5M. In 2018, the USAFA Endowment and the AFAAC partnered to fund a major improvement within stadium not readily evident to the general public: an over $8M public-private renovation and expansion of the home team locker room, $6.5M of which was privately sourced. The first such infrastructure expansion since the 1980s when the press box more than doubled in size, the former 3,875 square foot locker room was expanded by over 9,000 square feet through excavation of nearly 10,000 cubic yards east of the existing tunnel. The project includes auxiliary locker rooms to support outside events, modern medical and training areas, and a green room for visiting dignitaries attending USAFA graduations or other institutional events. A modernized media room and new locker rooms for coaches and the Falcons’ cheer and dance teams are also included in the expanded footprint.

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE SUPPORT

WARRIOR GAMES It was both a pleasure and a privilege for the United States Air Force Academy to host the 2018 DOD/Warrior Games from June 1-9, 2018. The games featured competition in archery, cycling, track and field, shooting, sitting volleyball, swimming, and wheelchair basketball. The opening ceremony which took place inside Falcon Stadium, and was hosted by Jon Stewart and also featured a live performance by Kelly Clarkson. Wounded Warriors from the four major branches of our incredible United States Military represented their respective branches in these events with the ultimate goal of taking home the gold for either the US Army, US Air Force, US Navy or US Marine Corps. The games have been hosted at some of the most iconic venues around the country, but it would be hard pressed to say any of them are as beautiful or stunning as the United States Air Force Academy. The Academy also added an extra layer of patriotism to the experience for the athletes as well as the thousands of fans who came out to witness the 2018 DOD Warrior Games.
