On Saturday, 13th July, on probably the hottest day of the year, Sutton Coldfield Sea Cadets sent fifteen Cadets to Bristol to take part in the South West Area Combined Regatta.

Every single one of them did fantastically well, all gaining 1st, 2nd or 3rd places, and we are proud to announce that eight of our Cadets now go forward to represent the South West Area at the National Combined Regatta at the Docklands, London, in September.
