Small Company (Novice) Drill - The Agnew Trophy

Description

1 This competition is open to Companies with fewer than 10 members in the Company Section at the beginning of the Session (not at date of Entry Schedule) OR Companies who have not entered a Squad Drill Competition during the preceding Session.

2 A Squad of 3 to 5 drilling in one rank is required. Staff Sergeants are not permitted.

3 Companies may enter up to TWO Squads only.

4 Please note the Drill Panel has reduced the numbers required for this competition to encourage smaller Sections. Companies may, if they so desire, have an NCO drill the Squad.

5 The Drill Movements to be performed do not present a high level of difficulty even to the newest of Companies tackling Drill for the first time.

6 Whilst we wish to encourage as big an entry as possible in all Drill Events, it is hoped that Companies would use this Competition as a ‘stepping-stone’ to the Contest (Limited) Drill Competition. Certainly it would be hoped that any Company winning this Competition 2 years running would not compete in it a third time.

7 The Agnew Trophy will be presented to the winning Squad.
