Eight teams including MTS combined, MTS Army, MTS RAF, St Marys CCF, 128 sqn Air training corps, Sea cadets (Litherland), 1st Irish Guards cadet platoon Crosby and Crosby mixed all units, entered the competition expertly organised and run by RSM Brett.

Activity stands included indoor range shooting, flight simulator, drill, combat first aid and command tasks alongside other exciting tasks. Competition amongst teams was high, with points being awarded at each stand for various skills demonstrated by the cadets including leadership and teamwork.
