Years ago, I visited Valencia. There was an global SHIRBRIG command and relay exercise. The hosts invited us to a unit of ground troops, respective twelve kilometers from the city. I was in Spain for the first time, so I admired the exotic landscape, enjoyed the late autumn warmth, but I felt jealous erstwhile I saw the barracks complex. Two-storey buildings with spacious soldierhouses, around the palm tree and respective sports facilities, including football, basketball, volleyball, including tennis court, outdoor gym, sports hall. I was delighted to comment that it was amazing how much Spanish money they spent on sports. – It is natural, the soldier must be fit – the guide replied. – There are besides respective 100 basic service soldiers in the barracks from Monday to Friday. In order to have a place to integrate and discharge energy, we have built specified sports complexes in many places in the country. utilizing them helps keep discipline. Young people spend more time in their own group, after relaxing they do not gotta go far," he added. A fewer years later akin objects began to be created in the WP.
The first, even before 2015, fresh sports halls, pitches and swimming pools were given air bases (Krzesiny, Łask). In the fall of 2014, after a 12-month renovation, a sports hall was commissioned at 1st Transport Aviation Base in Okęcie. In 2015, a fresh sports hall, with a gym and sauna area was awarded the General Staff of the WP. In 2016, the fresh sports hall pleased soldiers of the 18th Reconnaissance Regiment in Białystok. There are handball, volleyball and basketball fields, tennis court, climbing wall, gym and aerobics room. In 2018, at the Communication and Information Training Centre, the contractor commissioned the modern Military Arena Zegre, the main parts of which are a swimming pool with six tracks and a hall with 4 squad games pitches. Since the beginning of 2021, soldiers from the 17th Wielkopolska Mechanized Brigade in Wędrzyn have utilized the fresh arena. As of January 2023, the new, large sports hall serves the armored men of the 34th Armored Cavalry Brigade in Żagań. Lately, but beautifully renovated objects, including The football and athletic stadium and multi-purpose hall, yet boasts the Air Military Academy. Recently, students and employees have been utilizing the modular gym and the renovated fitness centre Military method Academy. On May 7, that year, a modern sports hall was opened at the Police Training Centre of the Land Army in Orzysz. Its clients are our soldiers and abroad personnel of the battalion's eFP combat group.

Investments in specified facilities are inactive carried out in different parts of the country. It is natural that we increase the numbers of the armed forces and host nearly 10,000 American soldiers, besides needing places where they can take care of physical strength. The Academy of Land Forces ordered for PLN 73.6 million the construction of a sports hall “White Podlasie Type” (for example, a repetitive object, like a akin hall built late in White Podlasie for soldiers of the local garrison) with pitches and OSF track. The Military Property Agency as an investor conducts the construction of a sports centre in Powidz, for Poles and allies (for PLN 73 million) and a smaller sports hall in Wesoła, for 1st Warsaw Armored Brigade (PLN 44.4 million).
In the following years we should anticipate further investments in Milfit – military sports facilities. My candidates on the precedence list are 21th Tactical Aviation Base in Swidwin and military units in Chełm, Zamość or Sitaniec, Nowa Dęba and Świętuszów. I'd add 25 more Air Cavalry Brigades. On the another hand, light sports halls that can be easy dismantled and moved to a different location or changed their destination to a warehouse, workshop or garage should be placed in the units distributed in complexes with temporary infrastructure. In the military, almost all objects by definition can be multifunctional. Permanent, masonry are besides useful in the case of staff exercises, the appointment of reservists or the request for emergency accommodation of uniformed search or rescue participants. athletics is strength, besides good ideas.
