National Football
Scarborough Sea Cadets travelled to Grantham for the Sea Cadet Corps National 5 aside Football Competition. The unit had two teams qualify from the Area Competition in January and they went on to represent Eastern Area along with teams from Norwich and Northampton.
The junior Boys and Girls teams played in the 12-15 age group with the competition being held over two days. The teams play in a group before going into the knock out stages. Teams from the other areas included Northern Ireland, Northern, Southern, London, North West and London Area teams.
The junior Girls lost a hard fought semi final to Northern Ireland but played extremely well in the third place play off against London winning 4-0 and a Bronze Medal.
A great game from every member of the team with two goals from Sam Read
The junior boys won their semi final 2-0 against the Southern Area team from Surrey, this meant they played Sefton Unit from North West Area in the final.
A great game from every member of the team with two goals from Sam Read, one a penalty and the other a quick free kick resulted in the first ever gold medal at a National Competition for TS Scarborough.
The hard work and effort resulted in Eastern Area sharing the overall trophy with Southern Area and our very own Cadet First Class Libby Scotter being named junior girls player of the tournament.
A great start to our centenary year celebrations.

BOATING WEEKEND AT WELTON WATERS – MAY 2019
The Unit held a successful boating weekend at Welton Waters and although the weather was cold, it did not deter our intrepid sailors! They couldn’t wait for permission to be granted to jump in the water at the end of the weekend which has become a tradition!
