Brian Osborne, commanding officer at Littlehampton, said: “This was a very special occasion and privilege for us.
“To win the trophy, the juniors cadets had to participate in six competitions. These are piping, rowing, a five-a-side football tournament, potted sports tournament, swimming and shooting.
“By winning the trophy, the junior cadets also win a guided tour of the naval ship HMS Warrior, which they are all thoroughly looking forward to.
