On Wednesday 29th June 2016, 470 Sqn took part in the Annual 122 Sqn 7-a-side football tournament at Garscube Sports Complex in Maryhill, Glasgow.

This year featured seven very competitive teams from across West Scotland Wing competing for the trophy shield and as a result there was plenty of action on the field.

The 470 team were fired up for the tournament having spent the last couple of weeks training at the Squadron headquarters. We got off to a good start with two convincing wins followed by a minor defeat to our neighbors 1333 (Grangemouth Spitfire) Squadron. The team held its nerve for the next two games securing wins but were defeated by reigning champions 62F squadron in their final match.

Overall we won second place and the team took home the Silver medals which was a fantastic result! Last year we came third and took Bronze so who knows what next year has in store.

In addition, this was the first opportunity that cadets from 470 got to wear the new custom sport kits which was supplied by RJM Sports in Falkirk – great job guys!
