What are the Invictus Games?
The Invictus Games are sports events for injured military and army personnel, inaugurated by Prince Harry in 2014. The competitors get together for the event from across 20 nations, including the U.S., the U.K., France, Canada, Denmark, Italy, Iraq, Jordan and New Zealand, to name a few. The origins of the Invictus Games date back to when the Duke of Sussex visited the Warriors Games in 2013.
"He saw how the power of sport could help physically, psychologically, and socially. His mind was made up. London would host the inaugural Invictus Games, an international sporting event for wounded, injured, and sick service personnel," reads the official website of the Invictus Games.
