Sports
All cadets in 224 (Hexham) Squadron are encouraged to take part in sporting events. Sports are played at a squadron, wing, regional and corps level.
Once a month, often more in the summer, the squadron will participate in sporting events within the squadron such as football, rounder's, cricket and Frisbee.
There are three main sporting events for the squadron each year. In the winter the wing inter-squadron cross country is held, in the spring the athletics are held and finally in the autumn the swimming competition is held.
These sporting events are enjoyable even for cadets that don't feel they are particularly good at sports as it gives everyone a chance to meet up with cadets from other squadrons that they have met whilst on camp or at other wing activities.
