His ability in sports is unknown. Various stories refer him as being extremely athletic to the point of his team relying on him to win a game, but several other stories portray him as having poor athletic ability. Archie manages to bring the score in a baseball game from 0-27 to 26-27 in just the one inning in which he pitches. Several stories begin with Archie portrayed as the star QB but unable to play due to an injury. In such cases he usually helps his team from the sidelines. For example in a football game he makes Jinx Malloy sit on the opponents side of the stands, thus causing a series of unfortunate accidents which eventually lead to Riverdale's victory. His ability in soccer is excellent though he failed the tryouts as he slipped on the first shot and was immediately rejected. His surfing ability is also portrayed in the same manner adapting according to the story ranging from "clueless surfer" to winning a surfing tournament.
