The2011Military World Games (Portuguese:Jogos Mundiais Militares de 2011), officially known as the5th CISM Military World Games (Portuguese:V Jogos Mundiais Militares do CISM), was hosted from July 15–24, 2011 inRio de Janeiro,Brazil.
The 5thMilitary World Games was the largestmilitary sports event ever held in Brazil, with approximately 4,900 athletes from 108 countries competing in 20 sports. The Games were organized by the Military Sports Commission of Brazil (CDMB) and the military commands (Army,Navy andAir Force), in accordance withCISM regulations and the rules of theInternational Sports Federations.
Brazil was chosen to host the 5th Military World Games during a meeting of theInternational Military Sports Council held inOuagadougou,Burkina Faso, on May 25, 2007. Brazil won, by means of a ballot, the race againstTurkey to host the 2011 games. Representatives from over 75 countries took part in the poll. Rio's existing sports infrastructure, the Brazilian expertise at hosting major events, and the support granted to the project by the local authorities were decisive for the Brazilian victory.[1]
The athletes participating in the 5th Military World Games were accommodated in threeathlete's villages (Green, Blue and White), all located in Rio de Janeiro. The Green Village was located in the neighborhood ofDeodoro, the Blue Village inCampo dos Afonsos and the White Village in the district ofCampo Grande.[2] The villages were built to be a functional and diverse center, vital to the operations of the Military World Games. The three villages comprise 106 buildings, 1,206 apartments and 4,824 rooms, with capacity to accommodate about 6,000 athletes and 2,000 officials. The budget used for the construction of the three villages is of R$400 million.
Twenty-seven competition venues were used during the 5th Military World Games, the majority located within Rio de Janeiro.[3]
