X-Challenge 2015

Dear all,

On 15 August  2015, our Secondary 2 and 3 cadets participated in the Inter-Unit X-Challenge competition 2015. They had went through many physically and mentally demanding trainings in order to prepare themselves for the illustrious competition. Overall it was a challenging and great learning experience for the cadets. At first, it was their first time experiencing a inter-unit competition and did not know what to expect, however they still performed at their best and  their hard work and efforts were not wasted. The Secondary 3 cadets who participated the previous year were able to guide their juniors well and could adapt quickly during the different stations and act accordingly.


'X Challenge is one of the most interesting and unforgettable experience of one's NPCC life. It basically contains four stations consisting of a quiz, treasure hunt, physical part, and pioneering. Luckily for me, I was fortunate enough to go for the X Challenge.
We had extra trainings every week, just for this event and they are mostly tougher than normal trainings. We had a treasure hunt in school and we practiced on lashings. On the day itself, although I was nervous, I was also excited for this event. When the X Challenge started, we ran to the various venues that we needed to go to complete the tasks. Overall, I think our team exhibited team spirit and resilience to get through the X Challenge. I think that this is something that all the juniors should experience as it may be a one in a lifetime chance.' - Lance Corporal (NPCC) Russell Koh




We are pleased to inform you that both teams have achieved the 13th and the 18th position in the competiton. Well done cadets!
