It's not just about hitting the target; it's about developing leadership skills, good habits, friendship, teamwork, and mentorship that makes the CCF something extra special. It's about pushing your limits and achieving things you never thought possible.

The CCF Army (CCF(A)) aims to set young people up for life long success and inspire cadets to achieve. Promote the qualities of responsibility, self-reliance, resourcefulness and a sense of service to the community. Activities include; drill, skill at arms, shooting, fieldcraft, first aid and adventurous training. By joining the CCF(A) cadets also have the opportunity to get involved with volunteer and charitable work in the community and to gain nationally recognised qualifications such as the Duke of Edinburgh's award and BTECs.
