Description
Our units use a structured training programme, based around a nautical theme, to encourage young people to stretch and develop themselves. Theoretical knowledge means little, unless you are able to use it. Young people are encouraged to use their new skills in a practical way, whether it is map reading on the hills, rock climbing, sailing a dinghy, playing in a marching band or enjoying one of the many other activities offered by the Corps.
