Youth Physical Fitness (YPF) – Marine Corps League

The Youth Physical Fitness program, National YPF Championship Meet, Regional YPF Meets, and local school and youth organization participation engage thousands of youth with a better outlook on being active, competing, and achieving things they did not know they could. Many of the young people who participate in these programs are exposed to positive role models for the first time in their lives. Many have never had to meet a challenge, attain a goal, or have the opportunity to dream a dream. The program provides a mental, moral, & physical challenge and establishes reachable goals. The fitness program also provides important recognition, which leads to pride in one’s self and is in many cases a building block for future self-improvement and is offered to every school and youth organization free of charge.
