The Youth Physical Fitness team (YPF) is a team that challenges cadets physically, practicing with medicine balls, timed running, and other physical things in preparation for the Cadet Challenge, hosted by Hoover.

Archery is a team based on the practices of safety and precision. Cadets practice two days out of the week and compete with other schools. Through team encouragement and self-confidence, cadets are able to further extend their skills throughout the school year. In the school year of 2021-2022, Hoover's Archery team competed in the National Competition, held in Utah. To be stated with pride, Hoover placed 4th in the National Competition.
