At MMA, we emphasize personal character and leadership on and off the field. Being part of a team and daily physical activity are crucial to a young man's positive development and it’s why we provide a wide range of varsity sports and non-competitive and competitive intramural activities at our military high school and middle school.

In May, MMA Equine Coordinator Christy Nowlin recognized cadets for their accomplishments in the equestrian program. A comprehensive horseback riding course, the equestrian program teaches cadets horse management and care; horsemanship techniques such as saddling and mounting; and horseback riding techniques like walking, trotting, cantering and galloping.
On April 24, 2023, Cadet Nathan Dempsey, a Missouri Military Academy (MMA) high school junior from Colleyville, Texas, recorded his 49th and 50th career wins in competition against Troy Buchanan High School. He earned the wins in dominant fashion, winning his singles match 8-0 and his doubles match 8-0. With those wins, he broke the Academy’s record career wins, previously held by Francisco Arias '92 (48 career wins).
From five years on the Missouri Military Academy Colonels soccer team to winning the 2023 Armed Forces Men’s Soccer Championship with the All-Army Soccer team, alumnus Don Williams Jr. ’18 has been on quite the post-graduation journey.
