Cadets Natalia and Weronika won the sailing boat-handling trophy at the Western District Boat-handling competition held on the River Thames at Twickenham Sea Cadet Unit on Sunday, 21 May. We're looking through our records and think this may be the first sailing boat-handling completion trophy Ruislip Unit has won for some years  - so well done to them both.

Ruislip Junior Sea Cadet detachment won first prize at the Western District Athletics Competition held in Hemel Hempstead on Saturday, 13 May.

Ruislip Juniors  came first in this competition previously in both 2013 and 2014.

9 Junior Cadets from Ruislip were at the Sea Cadets' London Area Boating Station on the Welsh Harp reservoir in Wembley on 24 April practising their boating skills. Regrettably, the weather was overcast (as can be seen from the picture). For some this was a new experience which they greatly enjoyed. The Boating Season for Bluejackets and Royal Marine Cadets will start on 22 May.
