Get the most out of every adventure and earn a badge to prove it. From a night at the unit to orienteering across Dartmoor. Get active with rock climbing, windsurfing and diving, or take part in more traditional activities like drill, piping and band.

When you’ve mastered new skills, you can represent your unit and compete in our national competitions. These let you compete against the rest of the Corps – from the Royal Marines Cadets’ Gibraltar Cup to our sailing regattas and ceremonial drill, there’s something to work towards and win.
