They have the opportunity to take part in sports such as Rugby, Football and Swimming, joining with other cadet battalions and regiments from across the UK They may have a chance to visit other countries. All their instruction is undertaken by well trained and qualified volunteer adult instructors, whose own training is regularly updated.
