About the Invictus Games
Founded by Prince Harry, The Duke of Sussex, the Invictus Games were inspired by his experiences seeing injured service personnel returning from deployment and a visit to the US Warrior Games in 2013. The first Invictus Games took place in 2014, creating an international sporting event that celebrates the determination and resilience of wounded, injured and sick service personnel and veterans.
More than a sporting competition, the Games support recovery and rehabilitation, helping competitors rebuild confidence, find a sense of purpose and look to the future.
