The Armed Forces Classic is a college basketball event operated on a military boatcraft, televised on ESPN, that involves one or two games played in front of military members and their families.
History [ edit ]
The first Armed Forces Classic was held on November 9, 2012, between Michigan State and UConn , at the Ramstein Air Base in Germany. It was the first college basketball game played between two NCAA Division I teams in Europe .[1] [2] [3] [4] [5]
The 2016 edition broke new ground for the event in several respects. It was the first to feature two games, and also the first not to be played at a military base, with games held at Stan Sheriff Center on the campus of the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa in Honolulu . Additionally, it was the first time tickets were sold to the general public, although all seats in the arena's lower bowl were reserved for military personnel and their families.[6] The event was held in Honolulu to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor ; surrounding events were held at Joint Base Pearl Harbor–Hickam .
The game was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic .
Sites for future games are tentative and may change due to military circumstances.
