BERKSHIRE DISTRICT DRILL AND PIPING COMPETITION...

Well we are finally done after a long day at the district drill competition. Fantastic effort and really high standards set by all those who turned up to compete.

Once again we showed how well Maidenhead work as a team by taking first place in the Armed Guard, Best Guard Commander, First place in Team Piping and First place in the individual Piping, with a close Second in the Colour Party competitions.

Thank you to all the staff who helped throughout the day this cannot be done without you and a special thank you to PO Hearn who trained the Colour and Guard teams, as well as giving up more time for preparations and training.

The cadets should be very proud of themselves as the Unit are!

Only four weeks till the area competition. So lots of training to be had, please remember to let us on Tuesday whether you can make the 18th and 19th of March.

Well Done all!
