A great training weekend for Australian Army Cadets 11 Battalion, bringing together more than 120 cadets and staff from across the Darling Downs.

🏆 CHIEF OF ARMY CADET TEAM CHALLENGE 2026 CHAMPIONS

13 Army Cadet Unit proudly congratulates South Queensland Brigade Team One on winning the 2026 Chief of Army Cadet Team Challenge.

The Chief of Army Cadet Team Challenge is one of the most demanding national activities available to Australian Army Cadets. Regional teams of 10 cadets are selected following physical and knowledge testing before competing against some of the highest-performing cadets from across Australia.

This year’s challenge brought together 13 Australian Army Cadet teams, alongside teams from the Australian Navy Cadets, Australian Air Force Cadets and New Zealand Cadet Forces.

Throughout the challenge, teams were pushed physically and mentally while undertaking demanding activities involving leadership, teamwork, navigation, fieldcraft, first aid, radio communications, engineering and complex problem-solving. Cadets were required to continue working effectively as a team while operating under pressure, navigating difficult terrain and managing fatigue.

Success in this challenge requires far more than individual fitness or technical ability. It requires resilience, determination, sound leadership and complete trust between every member of the team.

We are especially proud of our own CDTSGT Dyer, who represented both 13 ACU and South Queensland Brigade with distinction. Being selected to compete at this level is a significant achievement in itself; contributing to a national championship victory is an exceptional accomplishment.

Congratulations to every cadet and staff member involved in South Queensland Brigade Team One. Your preparation, dedication and teamwork have produced an outstanding result and brought the title home to South Queensland.

Well done, CDTSGT Dyer. Your entire 13 ACU family is incredibly proud of you and the way you represented our unit.

What a weekend for 13 Army Cadet Unit!

Over 27–29 March, 13 ACU proudly hosted an outstanding training weekend, finishing strong on Sunday with a virtual Run Army event that saw over 100 cadets and staff take part from across the Cadet forces.

Participating units included:

-13 ACU
-19 ACU
-120 ACU
-TS Toowoomba
-TS Ipswich
-NTS Oxley
-209 SQN AAFC

Run Army is more than just a run — it is about fitness, resilience, teamwork, determination, and pushing yourself to be your best. For cadets, it is an important way to build physical endurance, mental strength, and esprit de corps, while reinforcing the values of service, discipline, and teamwork.

It was fantastic to see so many cadets and staff coming together, supporting one another, and getting involved in such a positive and rewarding event.
Well done to everyone who participated and helped make the weekend such a success.

Celebrating 125 Years of the Australian Army

Today, 13 Army Cadet Unit proudly joins the nation in celebrating 125 Years of the Australian Army.

Since 1901, the Australian Army has served our nation with courage, professionalism, and unwavering commitment. From Gallipoli to modern peacekeeping and humanitarian operations, generations of soldiers have upheld the values of duty, honor, and service.

As an Australian Army Cadet Unit, we are proud to carry forward the traditions, discipline, and leadership foundations inspired by the Army. Our cadets learn not only fieldcraft and skills, but resilience, teamwork, and respect — values that have defined the Army for 125 years.

Today we acknowledge:
• Those who served
• Those who continue to serve
• And the legacy that inspires our cadets every week

13 ACU remains committed to developing young Australians who understand the meaning of service — whether in uniform or in the community.

Happy 125th Birthday to the Australian Army.

Duty First.

On Saturday night, 13 Army Cadet Unit marked a milestone — 70 years of shaping young Australians and serving the Toowoomba Region. Since 1955, thousands of cadets have worn the 13 ACU patch with pride, building confidence, character, and strong foundations for their future.

Our 70th Anniversary Dining-In Night was a fitting tribute to that history. Cadets, staff, and former members came together to honour the traditions, achievements, and people who have carried this unit through seven decades.

We were honoured to be joined by distinguished guests who continue to support youth development in our region:
• COL Athanasios Tsamis, Commander South East Queensland Army Cadets
• Trevor Watts MP, State Member for Toowoomba North
• Cr Carol Taylor, Councillor, Toowoomba Regional Council
• MAJ Jack Timm, representing the Commanding Officer, 7th Signal Regiment
• Mr Peter Cains, President, Toowoomba RSL Sub Branch
• Mr Huey James, Deputy President, Toowoomba RSL Sub Branch

Their presence reinforced the strong community connections that support our cadets and this unit.

To every staff member past and present — thank you for your leadership, dedication, and service. Your commitment has shaped generations of young people.
To our cadets — you represented the unit with professionalism, teamwork, and pride, just as those before you have done for 70 years.

Here’s to our past, and to the next chapter of 13 ACU.
70 years strong.

This week, CDTCPL Seegers and CDTCPL Anderson travelled down to attend the Chief of Army Cadet Team Challenge.

They didn’t just represent 13ACU — they proudly represented South Queensland in a demanding national event that brought together teams from Army, Navy, and Air Force Cadets from across Australia, as well as a team of Defence Force Cadets from New Zealand.

The challenge involved a series of tough activities, scenarios, and long-distance movements over some incredibly difficult terrain. It tested every aspect of teamwork, endurance, and leadership.

While South Queensland may not have come home with the win this year, both Seegers and Anderson gave it their all. They performed exceptionally and represented 13ACU with pride, determination, and honour.

Well done to both of you – your unit is incredibly proud! 👏💪🇦🇺
