The Cadet Games are the ultimate gathering of Cadets from all disciplines throughout Queensland coming together in the name of camaraderie, skill and drive. Teams from PCYC Queensland Emergency Services Cadets, Rural Fire Service, Royal Australian Navy Cadets, Australian Army Cadets, Royal Australian Air Force Cadets and Military Cadets all compete for the title of Ultimate Cadet Crew.
The Cadet Games command excellence in skill, teamwork, leadership and camaraderie and are supported by judges who are all emergency services or defence personnel. Locally, games are supported by Queensland Police Service, Queensland Fire Department, Queensland Ambulance Service, Australian Red Cross, Surf Life Saving Queensland, Australian Volunteer Coast Guard Association and Volunteer Marine Rescue Association Queensland. This one-day competition takes place in both Townsville and Brisbane annually, thanks to funding from Queensland Police Service and Queensland Fire Department and logistics from the PCYC Emergency Services Cadets.
