This is a complimentary event and is not mandatory.

Drill team is open for those Cadets who wish to be part of a Drill Team to learn

From Cadets Menu / Drill Team

What should you wear?

Civilian attire – must be comfortable.

What do you need to bring?

Drill Boots and FTU boots  – Cadets will not wear crocks!
If Cadets have running shoes, they can bring those as well.
Each cadet should bring a small notepad and a pen or pencil
Cadets will need to bring a boot polishing kit
  • Black shoe polish
  • brush
  • applicator

  • old tooth-brush
  • nylons for buffing
  • Newspaper to polish your boots over

What will you learn?

Drill  –  either with Drill Rifles or not, and to prepare a silent freestyle demonstration for about 5 and half minutes

What are the goals?

Create a competition drill team, build a base of cadets that will know how to do drill  and pass on that knowledge – part of leadership building
The Team will start polishing both FTUs and Drill Boots  every drill practice

How long is the training for?

Mondays  1830 to 2000 for now, every 2 weeks, though ideally it should be every week

When is competition?

CoC dictates when there is a competition, but the drill team competition can be formal or informal, and it can also be a demonstration at the ACR.

Is there a break?

Breaks as needed
Cadets should bring a snack – they can  they should bring water

Will there be music?

Music not at this time – but a combined Band and Drill Team demo could be thought of  –  have not seen this very often, as the Drill team and Band have separate competitions
