Area Competition 2026

Area Competition 2026

 

A fantastic day for Stonehaven Sea Cadets at Area Competition.

A huge well done and thank you to every cadet who took part yesterday. It was an early start and a long day, but the effort, discipline and determination shown by everyone was outstanding. You represented the unit with pride from start to finish.

After months of Wednesday night training, the team’s hard work paid off. We haven’t entered a drill competition for many years, so bringing home a Silver Medal is an incredible achievement.

POC Jack led the Colour Party with confidence and pride, while our pipers were outstanding once again, securing first place for the second year running. CFC Helen also achieved a fantastic second place in a very competitive individual field and will now head to Nationals in April with the piping team.

A huge thank you to the training staff – SLt Coolahan, PO Barclay and PO Paul – for their dedication and support behind the scenes.

BZ everyone!

 

What a successful end to a busy couple weeks!

Over the past few weeks, our cadets have worked tirelessly to rehearse a drill routine and piping on the Bosun’s Call before competing in the Grampian District Sea Cadets drill and piping competition today.

All cadets performed brilliantly today, but we are very proud to say that Stonehaven once again showed their exceptional hard work (and guidance from their dedicated instructors!!) paid off and we came home with Gold for all entries!

Keep up the hard work, for the next competition is only a couple weeks away, being held at HMS Caledonia!

We really appreciate you taking the time to show us around, share your experiences, and give us a real insight into the incredible work you do. It was inspiring to hear firsthand about the dedication and teamwork involved in keeping people safe at sea.
