The Navy League Cadet Corps are managed and supervised by adult volunteers who are enrolled as Navy League Officers or Navy League Instructors. Officers are granted warrants by the League, wear naval pattern uniforms and use naval ranks followed by a Navy League (NL) designator. Navy League Officers are not members of, nor are they affiliated with, the Canadian Armed Forces. They are dedicated volunteers who have one common interest: developing and growing our nation’s youth.
Navy League officers go through an application and screening process which includes a thorough background check. This serves two purposes:
- To create and maintain a safe environment for our Cadets and volunteers
- To ensure an appropriate match between each volunteer and their duties
In addition to each volunteer’s unique background and skills, all officers and instructors are provided with training opportunities from the Navy League of Canada. This training provides all instructors with the skills required to work with today’s youth. These include home study and weekend training in leadership and instructional techniques.
We value the service of our volunteers. In addition to the joy and fulfillment you gain from volunteering, the Navy League of Canada has a comprehensive awards and recognition program. Awards are presented at the local, regional and national levels.
We are always looking for more officers – if this sounds like something you would be interested in, please talk to our Commanding Officer on any Wednesday evening.
