events and spans over two days. This year’s
competition was help October 15th and 16th.

Both teams performed well and represented the
university with distinction in the competition.
The competition ended on Saturday night with
an awards ceremony that was held on Sunday
morning congratulating all forty seven teams
from Seventh Brigade that competed.
The nine events are: Engagement Skills Trainer

that required Cadets to move heavy objects
over a long distance, orienteering, weapon
assembly and disassembly, hand grenade assault
course, one-rope bridge, obstacle course, and
water operations using an inflatable raft.
