Sports
The RLC places a huge importance on sport. With 27 sports supported, we have one for you.
“I place a huge premium on sport in the Army. It helps our Army win in battle and plays a vital role in welfare, morale, operational effectiveness and recovery.
Sport produces soldiers who build and lead teams by habit and reflex. It generates and maintains cohesion. It nurtures pride and that essential corollary – humility. It encourages leaders to think clearly, confidently and positively when under pressure.
And fundamentally it feeds a winning culture and ethos that
inspire hunger for success on the battlefield.”
CGS, Army Sports Awards 2014

The Royal Logistic Corps
On 5 Dec 19 the Commando Logistic Support (LS) Sqn RLC received two awards during a visit from the 3 Cdo Bde commander, Brig Matt Jackson DSO.
The Sqn was awarded a Commandant General Royal Marines (Maj Gen Holmes CBE DSO) commendation for its efforts over the last two years on the sporting, military skills and trade efforts. The Sqn maintained a winning streak whilst also simultaneous deploying to Oman/USA/Norway and embarking on RN ships to support 3 Cdo Bde. This was made even more notable as the Sqn strength is 81 soldiers (4 of whom are RM).
The second award was the Clifford Coates Trophy, awarded to the best Sqn during 2019 that took part in the CO’s annual sporting series of events. Commando Logistic Regiment RM is made up of 7 Sqn’s and some 850 personnel – the majority are RM.
Pictured is CGRM's citation and the Bde Comd with Cpl Limbu and Pte Harris. Simply fantastic achievements by a minor unit. #WeAreTheRLC @LSSqn.CdoLogs ... See MoreSee Less
