2493 (Alsager) Squadron 

Welcome to the website of 2493 (Alsager) Squadron, this is a uniformed youth organisation sponsored by the Royal Air Force. We aim to provide cadets with skills, opportunities and experiences that will make them well-rounded individuals for the future. 

​

What makes us different to other Air Cadet Squadrons?

We are part of a handful of Squadrons within Staffordshire Wing that have a Squadron band. Throughout the year, the band take part in numerous parades including the annual Remembrance Parade and the band has even had the honour to perform for Stoke City Football Club. As a Squadron, we recognise the vast amount of skills young people have and we are dedicated to helping the cadets use their skills and show how talented they are. The Squadron band is a opportunity every cadet can access when they join the Squadron and every cadet can choose from the vast amount of instruments we have to offer.

​

What activities does the Squadron have to offer?

The training plan for the year is usually packed with lots of activities which the cadets can take part in. They include:

• Team building exercises

• Flying 

• Sports (individual and team sports)

• First aid 

• Drill

• Classification training and many more!
