Question: how old do you have to be to be in the army cadets?
Answer: You have to be at least 12 years old and under 19 to join the Cadet Program. If you are under 12 years of age but wish to participate in a Cadet Program, “Navy League Cadets” aimed at youth aged 9-13 is a program run entirely by one of our civilian partners, the Navy League of Canada.
