Sport

​

The Air Cadet Organisation offers a wide rang of core sports activities for you to get your teeth into. From athletics to hockey and rugby there’s a lot to choose from. Most Squadrons also offer access to a wide variety of other sport too – some of which you could even use towards your Duke of Edinburgh Physical section. As a cadet with Aldermaston Squadron you will be given the opportunity to take part in different sports events each month as part of the monthly training programme. Sport with the RAF Air Cadets is a great way to get to know some of your fellow cadets in a more social setting. The sports that we offer are great at developing teamwork and there’s nothing better than beating another local Squadron at a sports competition! If you have a keen interest in sport you can even apply for selection for the Wing sports teams for a number of sports. The Corps official sports are:

​

​

• Football

• Rugby

• Hockey

• Netball

• Swimming

• Athletics

• Cross Country

​

If you want to be more involved in sport the selection for the Wing team could see you progressing to represent the RAF Air Cadets nationally against sports teams from the Army and Sea Cadets. By representing your Wing, Region or the Corps at sport you will be awarded a “Sporting Blue” for your sportswear. As well as taking part in sporting activities, the RAF AC offers the opportunity to gain qualifications in sports leadership.
