The Connaught Cadet Challenge Competition 2026

The Connaught Cadet challenge Competition took place over the weekend of the 11-13th September 2026. The competition saw cadets from Hampshire & Isle of Wight Army Cadet Force, Hampshire & Isle of Wight Royal Air Force Air Cadets, the Volunteer Cadet Corps and Hampshire & Isle of Wight Fire & Rescue Service Cadets compete in a variety of challenging stands, demonstrating teamwork, leadership, skills and resilience throughout the weekend. Beyond the competition, the event was a fantastic opportunity for cadets to meet and build friendships with fellow cadets and staff from across the wider Cadet Forces.
