Cadets compete for the ACF National Sports trophies
Blessed with a fine spring day in Cumbria cadets from all over the UK participated in the National Cross Country and Boys’ 6-a-side Football Competitions. The cross country was organised very well by Lt Col John Wilson of Cumbria ACF. The courses, designed for all ages, were muddy in parts, steep in parts and testing for everyone.
The prizes were presented by Lady Shuttleworth who is the Hon Col of Lancashire ACF. The competition overall winner was Eastern Region which fielded a very strong team winning every team event except the Junior Boys which was won by North West. Of particular merit was Cdt Willis from Northern Ireland Senior Boys’ team who stormed to the finish line two minutes faster than the second placed cadet, and Cadet LCpl Thomas from Eastern Region Intermediate Boys’ team who having been unplaced in his regional event and therefore not selected for the main team, then managed to come home first at the Nationals.
Meanwhile adjacent to Warcop Camp the football competition was in full swing organised by Lancashire ACF. Such was the efficiency of the organisation the officials attending the cross country only just had time to come over to view the finals of the juniors and seniors.
In the junior boys’ finals Northern Ireland beat the North West 5-4 after penalties, whilst in the senior boys’ finals London beat the South West 6-3. Lady Shuttleworth, Hon Col of Lancashire ACF, presented the prizes.
