Football
Many squadrons, including Woolton, organize their own five-a-side tournaments. To be chosen for the Wing team at Junior or Senior level you must attend trials which are held annually. Then if you are good enough you will be chosen to play for the Region and then perhaps the corps. This event is for male cadets only.
Athletics
The Wing Athletics is held annually around
April. Squadrons
enter individual cadets and you are
free to choose three events to participate in, up to two track and one field.
Medals are awarded for first, second and third in each event and in each age
category, Junior, Intermediate and Senior. There are also separate male and
female events. In addition to this there are cups to be won by the best male
cadet at the event, all levels, and the best female cadet, all levels. There is
also a trophy for the best squadron at the event. If you come first you will go
on to represent the Wing at the regional competition, which follows a similar
format. Events include:
| 100 metres | 200 metres | 400 metres |
| 800 metres | 1500 metres | High Jump |
| Long Jump | Javelin | Shot Putt |
| Discus |
Rugby
The rugby competitions follow the same format as for the football. Again, this event is for male cadets only.
Netball
The Net ball competition is held annually around October. Squadrons enter their own teams or individual cadets to make up composite teams. There is a trophy and medals to be won. If you play well you may be selected for the wing team and then perhaps region or corps. This event is for female cadets only.
Cross-country
The wing cross-country competition is held
annually and is
usually held in November. Again, there are separate male and female events with
three age groups for the males and two for the females. Those competing must run
a three mile course over rough terrain. There are medals for those who come
first, second and third. The first four in each category form the wing team and
can be chosen for region and corps.
Hockey
Trials are held for the Junior and Senior team who go on to the regional competition where they can win a trophy and medals.
Team members may be chosen for Regional and corps teams. This event is for female cadets only.
Swimming
The swimming competition is held annually. There are medals to be won and those who win are selected for the Wing team. Again there are Regional and Corps competitions also.
