From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Sports Clubs of the Army , Russian : спортивные клубы Армии [СКА] sportivnye kluby Armiy, SKA , also called the Sports Clubs of the Soviet Ministry of Defense or simply Armed Forces or Army were a system of sports clubs and one of the largest sports societies in the USSR .
Established at first within officers' clubs of the Red Army , after the Second World War they were reformed into sports clubs for all ranks in the armed forces . All the sports clubs were supervised by the Sports Committee of the Ministry of Defence of the USSR and the sports committees of military districts and naval fleets , with each district and fleet having its own club.[1] The army clubs were often abbreviated as SKA and previously as SKVO and DO. The largest club was located in Moscow , CSKA Moscow ("C" standing for Central). Army clubs had an opportunity to enlist all top athletes of a country due to the mandatory conscription.[1]
