Play in a competitive team
A sense of camaraderie like no other.
It‘s essential to be in good shape, mentally and physically, because you may face challenging situations. Whether you decide to be on a sports team or at the Olympics – or if you’re actually on a mission with your team.
Our people are invited to play at every level, from grassroots and upwards, right through to competing for the Royal Navy at Inter-Service Championships. We can even support you to represent your country at the Summer and Winter Olympics.
Made in the Royal Navy - Gareth's story
Being in the Royal Navy means getting stuck in from the start, developing skills and getting qualifications you never thought possible, travelling the world, representing the Navy on the field - all while getting paid from day one of training.
