Traditional Korean bow and arrow. It is divided into hwanmokgung and bokhapgung.

UNSPSC 49181613 Gukgung, a Commodity code, covers athletic and sports equipment that state and local governments procure through both cooperative purchasing vehicles and direct school district solicitations. Recent opportunities show state and local buyers sourcing soccer equipment, uniforms, footwear, shin guards, and general athletic supplies for K–12 instruction and district use. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts and state education agencies participating in cooperative purchasing consortia; the Association of Educational Purchasing Agencies (AEPA) coordinates multi-state athletic supplies procurement on behalf of 31 state member agencies, while individual school districts such as Donna Independent School District in Texas issue their own RFPs for specialized sport equipment. Cooperative purchasing vehicles dominate the code's recent activity, with Sourcewell and AEPA each managing broad-based solicitations that allow participating entities flexibility in vendor selection and pricing.

Geographic activity centers on Texas (Donna ISD), the upper Midwest (Sourcewell's Minnesota base serving Washington state counties), and multi-state reach through AEPA's 31-state participation model that includes Georgia among identified members. Representative recent opportunities include AEPA #027-E Athletic Supplies and Equipment (sealed bid, due August 13, 2026, administered through the Euna Procurement platform with public opening at 2:00 p.m. ET on that date), which requires vendors to serve up to 31 states; Sourcewell RFP #061626 Law Enforcement Equipment (due June 16, 2026, at 3:30 p.m. Central Time), which expands beyond traditional athletic goods to include law enforcement equipment for Washington state counties; and Donna ISD RFP 011326-882 Soccer Equipment and Supplies (due April 8, 2026, catalog-bid format with multiple vendor awards). The code shows active procurement momentum through established cooperative vehicles and direct school district demand.
