_The County's annual 6-a-side football tournament was held at the Parks Leisure Centre, North Shields earlier today.

Team W Company put on a good show, but as our team was short of numbers we didn't finish very highly. As a Company of junior cadets we tend to struggle entering older competitors to events and today was no exception.

The following cadets represented W Company in the junior age category and are commended for their efforts today:
- LCpl Joe Miller (Broomhill)
- Cdt Adam Lewis-Douglas (Belford)
- Cdt Andrew Carr (Belford)
- Cdt Ryan Carr (Belford)
- Cdt Jonathan Hayton (Alnwick)
- LCpl Teri Hall (Alnwick)
- LCpl Kirstyn Crate (Alnwick)
- Cdt Georgia Laidler (Alnwick)
- LCpl Caitlin Craik (Amble)

Y Company, from Newcastle and the south west of the County, won the tournament overall, giving them an important early lead in this year's Champion Company competition. There's always next year!
