1. armor

   Arms are implements of attack; armor is a defensive covering. The knight put on his armor; he grasped his arms. With the disuse of defensive armor the word has practically gone out of military use, but it is still employed in the navy, where the distinction is clearly preserved; any vessel provided with cannon is an armed vessel; an armored ship is an ironclad. Anything that can be wielded in fight may become a weapon, as a pitchfork or a paving-stone; arms are especially made and designed for conflict.

   Synonyms:
   accouterments, arms, harness, mail, weapons

1. Sam Gordon:

   I’m so excited to be working with them. The first that we did was the UA Next girls football camps. There’s going to be one in Utah in June, but we just had the one in LA, and it was so amazing to see all those girls out there, first, overall, working with Under Armor, we’re working to bring equity in the sport, really push for female involvement in football and giving girls access and opportunity to play. A big part of that is these UA Next girls football camps, which I think are incredible opportunities for girls to get exposure to the sport they usually don't have the opportunity to participate in. And, not only that, but feel like they really belong in it.
