Sea Cadets

The U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps (Sea Cadets), a youth program for ages 10 and up, gives young Americans a competitive edge by providing world-class leadership development, training opportunities, mentorship, life skills, confidence, challenge, and adventure.

Sea Cadets offer today's youth the skills, knowledge, and confidence to become productive, responsible American citizens with an appreciation for the maritime services: U.S. Navy, U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Marine Corps, and U.S. Merchant Marine. We build leaders with character.
