In 1983, professional firefighters representing cities all across Texas began participating in various sporting events against other Texas Fire Departments. The Texas Firefighter Games was born and is now held annually in a "Host City" (rotating to a different "Host City" every year). The Games are held starting the third Sunday of July each year and end on Friday of that week.
Firefighter athletes and their families attend the week long event each year.
If you are a professional certified firefighter (sorry but no Volunteer Firefighters) in Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Louisiana, and Arkansas, we invite you to join the spirit of competitive fun and sign up for the next running of the Texas Fire-fighter Games!
