Another massive congratulation to Leading Cadet Beth Rose for winning the Reg Day Memorial Trophy for the highest scoring cadet on a Leading Cadet Advancement Board within Warwickshire District during 2014.

Beth scored a Credit Pass with 133.5 points out of a possible 150, which is an amazing effort.

At the beginning of February we set up a on-line site to enable friends and supporters to make personal donations to the Unit and if applicable to select the donation as part of 'Gift-Aid'

Please visit the site at MyDonate

The site will be used whenever an event is arranged which relies on sponsorship etc. But donations can be made at any time.

Well done to all the cadets that competed today at the Warwickshire District 5-A-Side Football Competition including those we borrowed from other units to make up a team. Final results were:

Junior Girls: 4th, Junior Boys: 7th, Senior Girls: 4th and Senior Boys: 4th with the unit finishing in 5th place overall. Well done all! The unit has secured 25 points towards the Flotilla Trophy for 2015.

Another year nearly over and what a year 2014 has been for all at Shirley Sea Cadets.

We've seen some massive success in competitions, some great recognition in our local community and have gained a huge amount of both cadet and adult qualifications, with some personal successes and promotions.

I'd like to thank all of the adults, both uniformed and non uniformed committees and supporters, all of whom do a massive amount of work in making our unit as successful as it is.

May I take this opportunity to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Looking forward to 2015!
