Southend Air Cadets Triumph at Essex Inter-Squadron Swimming Competition

On Saturday evening, cadets from across the wing gathered at Harlow Leisurezone for the Essex Wing Inter-Squadron Swimming Competition. Cadets from our squadron competed against others in various swimming disciplines and age categories.

Loudly and proudly cheered on and supported by their teammates throughout the event, our cadets delivered strong performances, earning several individual medals.

We are pleased to announce that our junior girls team and senior boys team both placed second in their respective categories. More notably, our squadron finished first overall, making us this years Essex Wing Swimming Champions.

Reflecting on the performance, our Officer Commanding, Flt Lt Busby, stated:

“I am proud of the cadets and the staff team. Well done; now we look forward continuing our sporting success at Wing Athletics”

As a result of their performances, some of our cadets will represent Essex Wing at the Central & East Region Swimming Competition next month.
