In keeping with our plan to go on at least one unit trip a month, we recently took a minibus (and a couple of cars) full of our cadets to Deeside Leisure Centre for a disco on the ice! After a shaky start our cadets were for the most part happy skating round (and those that didn't skate were more than happy with the chips served by the cafe), with a few even giving the staff a run for their money.

Despite a few falls and grazed knees all of our cadets had a great time, and as per tradition everybody was more than happy to visit McDonalds on the way home.

After our senior boys' football team's fantastic performance at district level, coming away with first place, they were very excited to take on teams from all over the north west for the area level competition.

After a tiring day of fierce competition, our senior boys finished in third place! This is a great result for an area level competition and we are very proud of the whole team. The next competition coming up is district seamanship and marine engineering at the end of February, and if our cadets work half as hard for that as they did for football then our unit should be coming away with another trophy!

As this was our last parade night of 2015, we invited in all of our cadets parents and unit supporters to witness our best cadets being presented with awards for their efforts over the past year. Cadets that made an extra effort in 2015 in areas such as boat work, marching band, and general uniform/ behaviour were recognised with trophies, and as always we presented the TS Conway Trophy to the overall best cadet of 2015. The cadet that received the TS Conway trophy this year was AC Connor Taylor, whom this year has made a huge amount of progress and is now one of our hardest working senior cadets.

As proud as we are of all of the cadets that received awards we would also like to thank each and every one of of our cadets for the efforts they have put in over the year as it is greatly appreciated, and we think has made 2015 one of best years for TS Conway in recent memory.
