Margin of Excellence
The Naval Academy Athletic Association (NAAA) partners with the United States Naval Academy Foundation and the Athletic & Scholarship Programs Trustees to raise private “Margin of Excellence” resources to support the priorities of the Physical Mission of the Naval Academy. These contributions support The Fund for Athletic Excellence, which benefits all 36 Varsity Programs, Physical Mission Capital Projects, and Sport-Specific Initiatives.
A key component of the development of each midshipman is the emphasis placed on the Physical Mission at the United States Naval Academy. Investing critical Margin of Excellence funding in support of the Physical Mission is essential in allowing Navy Athletics to fulfill its mission of leadership development and excellence in competition. Sustained support to the Physical Mission provides the resources necessary for all programs to successfully compete for, and win championships.
