PHYSICAL TRAINING<br />
It is physical fitness that enables a soldier to<br />
march into the valley of death, a sailor to sail<br />
the formidable high seas and an air warrior to<br />
soar into alien skies. Physical training is thus an<br />
important aspect of outdoor training and the aim<br />
of the Physical Training Team (PTT) is to build<br />
up the stamina, endurance and agility of a cadet. It<br />
is designed to allow each cadet to achieve excellent<br />
physical fitness and adequate proficiency in sports.<br />
A compulsory programme, it is rigorous and<br />
continues throughout from the Ist to the<br />
VIth term of the cadet. The programmes are<br />
implemented through scientific techniques<br />
in a phased and progressive manner. The<br />
comprehensive PT regimen ensures that young<br />
boys from civvy street are transformed into<br />
physically and physiologically fit cadets by the<br />
time they graduate from the Academy.<br />
