T.S BLACKCAP: BIRKENHEAD SEA CADET CORPS UNIT Win the Seventh Indefatigable Trophy
Indefatigable Old Boys, are invited to attend the following event and ceremony
Monday 20th May 2013.
It gives us the greatest pleasure to congratulate T.S Blackcap, on being awarded the Indefatigable Cup. The Unit made sustained progress throughout last year, with an effective training programme and the taking part of District and Area events. This has required huge effort and commitment and they thoroughly deserve the award.
The Sea Cadet unit was awarded a Burgee by Cpt Mark Windsor RN (SCC Captain), at a special presentation ceremony at the unit premises in Birkenhead. The Burgee is the highest award that can be awarded to a Sea Cadet Corps Unit in recognition of the hard work of the Volunteers, Cadets and UMC.
Brigadier Bill O’Leary (IOBA Chairman) will be travelling to the ‘Birkenhead Unit’ to make this very special presentation to the Commanding Officer of T.S. Blackcap, along with a monetary cheque in person on behalf of the IOBA.
- IOBA Chairman & Indefatigable entourage to arrive at TS Blackcap: 18:45 for 19:00.
- Presentation starts 19:30.
- Evening finishes 21:30.
The trophy, once the ‘Merseyside Navy League – Swimming Gala Trophy’, is so valuable it has to remain at the SCC HQ other than for the presentation, the winning unit will receive a memento to keep.
