Chapter 1 STAFF OPERATIONS

1. GENERAL. This chapter addresses topics that are pertinent to instructors only. 2. DE-CLC PLANNING. The schedule below outlines actions necessary to plan DE-CLC each

year.

a. Eight to ten months prior to DE-CLC, the Commandant will inform schools of the camp dates and provide preliminary information about the camp.

b. Four to five months prior to camp, the Commandant will schedule an instructor meeting to

discuss the details of camp and instructors should be prepared to discuss recommended changes to the way camp is conducted.

c. Two months prior to camp, the Commandant will request the number of cadets each unit

nominates for camp. Each unit will provide name, sex, previous camp experience, and previous positions held. In addition, the Cadre Advisor will require nomination applications for all cadre positions.

d. At least one month before camp, units will receive copies of the Cadet Handbook from the

Commandant.

3. STAFF ORGANIZATION.

a. The Commandant is vested with overall responsibility for the success of the program. For the duration of DE-CLC, all other instructors will follow the directions of the Commandant and fulfill responsibilities assigned by the Commandant.

b. All instructors will be assigned a primary responsibility at camp. The Commandant will

assign duties based on instructor preference/talents. However, it is essential that instructors work together and “pitch in” where needed to ensure that camp objectives are met.

4. CADET SUPERVISION. AFJROTC instructors are responsible for all cadets from their

home unit. Other instructors and Cadre cadets may be responsible for specific aspects of training, but that does not relieve the home unit instructor of his/her responsibility for the safety and welfare of attending cadets.

a. Home unit instructors will transport his/her cadet to the appropriate medical facilities

whenever medical care is required. The instructor is responsible for communicating with cadet parents concerning cadet personal problems or emergencies.

b. Instructors will determine when one of his/her cadets should be sent home. The instructor is

responsible for notifying parents and arranging transportation. 5. INSTRUCTOR STANDARDS. Instructors must meet or exceed Air Force standards in every

area. Cadre and trainees will “watch like a hawk” everything that instructors do. Therefore, it is our basic responsibility to serve as outstanding role models for these cadet officer candidates. DE-CLC instructors will adhere to the following standards:


5

a. Exhibit proper military customs and courtesies at all times during camp. Salute in all areas (individually or as a flight) except when in the following situations:

i. Inspection and drill areas when training is in progress.

ii. Flag raising area during practice.

i) Form-up areas outside the dormitory, dining hall, and drill pads when instructors

and cadets are engaged in unit formations.

ii) Instructors should never touch a cadet, especially a cadet of the opposite sex, without the cadet’s permission. Instructors should not show undue familiarity, such as hugs or special favors, with any cadet.

b. Instructors must wear the appropriate uniform at all times. A schedule for uniform wear will

be provided to instructors. Instructors engaged in outside activities for an extended period may be authorized to wear special uniform items.

6. CHECK-IN PROCEDURES.

a. All cadets and instructors check in at the pre-briefed location.

b. Instructors turn-in the following:

i. DE-CLC Application for each cadet

ii. DE-CLC fees – checks payable to SHS JROTC BOOSTERS

iii. Supplies (see Chapter 2)

c. The camp staff will provide dorm assignments and direct the cadets to their buildings.

d. The Commandant will notify instructors of the time and place of the first instructor meeting. 7. INSTRUCTOR MEETINGS. The Commandant will hold daily instructor meetings to

discuss the day’s activities, the next day’s training, and cadet performance. All instructors are expected to attend these meetings. Instructors will receive the next day’s schedule at the instructor meetings.

8. LESSON PLANS. Lesson plans will be prepared by each instructor for his/her assigned

curriculum subject. Any course related materials required will be supplied by the instructor. Any special materials required should be coordinated with the Commandant or NCOIC prior to DE-CLC.

9. END OF CAMP CELEBRATION. On the last night of camp all instructors will monitor

these functions and ensure cadets remain in designated areas and that behavior is appropriate. Instructors should monitor cadets after they return to the buildings to ensure cadets maintain appropriate behavior.


6

10. DE-CLC CLOSING.

a. A final instructors’ meeting will be held to critique the leadership course. At least one instructor from each school must attend.

b. The course ends with an awards ceremony and graduation exercise/parade. At the end of the

ceremony, instructors resume control of their cadets.

c. Home unit instructors are responsible for inspecting their dorms/buildings, check-out and cadet transportation. Instructors should inspect cadet area for damage and items left behind. Dorms/buildings should be neat and orderly.

11. AFTER ACTION REPORTS. Instructors are encouraged to forward suggestions for the next

year’s camp to the Commandant while the ideas are fresh in their mind. If possible, statistical reports on each cadet will be provided to instructors prior to departing from camp.


7

Chapter 2 SUPPORT REQUIREMENTS

1. GENERAL. This chapter contains information essential for support of Delaware Cadet

Leadership Course (DE-CLC). Initial coordination with Smyrna High School should be initiated at the close of the current year’s DE-CLC with a follow-up in October/November.

a. AFJROTC instructors will operate the leadership course and provide around the clock

supervision of the cadets. An instructor will always be in close proximity to the cadets.

b. The training location may have rules that will be briefed to all instructors during the initial instructor meeting.

c. The DE-CLC Commandant or his designated representative will coordinate all requirements

with base personnel during DE-CLC. All instructors should report any support requirements to the Commandant.

2. BILLETING

a. Cadets are housed in buildings, with separate buildings for males and females. Cadet rules specify strict requirements concerning entering dormitories of the opposite sex at any time.

b. The normal contingent of instructors is approximately 10. These include AFJROTC

instructors and Active Duty, National Guard, Reserve and ROTC support personnel. 3. MEDICAL CARE.

a. Each unit must bring two copies of the DE-CLC Standard Release/Permission Form to camp. One copy will be maintained in a notebook accessible to all instructors. Each unit instructor will keep one set of forms for their cadets. These forms are required to secure medical treatment for injured/sick cadets.

b. Any injuries or illnesses that cannot be treated in camp will be transported to the appropriate

medical facility.

c. A home unit instructor will transport his/her cadet to the appropriate facility. If feasible, the instructor should contact the cadet’s parent/guardian prior to seeking medical treatment.

d. Instructors may bring first aid kits to treat minor problems like blisters, scrapes, and

scratches. 4. ATHLETIC FACILITIES. DE-CLC requires the following facilities:

a. Two playing fields for ultimate (or similar sport), dodge ball, kickball, and board races. In addition, nightly sports events require the use of all volleyball courts.

5. DRILL AREAS. DE-CLC needs 4 drill areas large enough to accommodate 20 cadets. Drill

areas should be at least 90 by 70 feet. Any area that is near the dorms and free of vehicular traffic is suitable.


8

6. DINING FACILITY. Cadets will dine in a dining facility/field kitchen. Cadets will be afforded the opportunity to select from a balanced menu for each meal. The dining schedule changes daily so that each flight has a chance to eat at different times.

7. DE-CLC EQUIPMENT. To properly conduct DE-CLC requires a coordinated and

cooperative effort on the part of all participants. Instructors need to “chip in” supplies needed to run the course. Therefore, each school is tasked to provide the following supplies (turn-in at check-in):

1). 8 1/2 X 11 white paper 1 package 2). Coolers 2 3). Clothes Hangers 5 per cadet (for use by home unit cadets)

8. CADET RANK. All rank is issued at the home unit prior to arriving at DE-CLC. All trainees

wear Cadet Senior Airman (C/SrA) rank. Cadre cadets will wear the rank specified in the Cadet Operations chapter. Cadre positions are assigned prior to camp, so insure you issue cadre cadets the appropriate rank and cadet officer hat insignia. Cadre cadets can be fired for failure to pass the PFT or drill evaluation (day 1) or for cause. Therefore, instructors may want to bring extra cadet officer and C/SRA rank to camp. Cadets interviewing for the Cadet Squadron Commander position should have Cadet Major rank issued at home unit. Cadre cadets will need miniature hard rank to wear on their ball caps.

9. CLOTHING/EQUIPMENT LIST. Previously issued to instructors, and handed out to cadets at

their home unit. See page 52 of this handbook.

Chapter 3

*CADRE OPERATIONS*

1. GENERAL. Delaware Cadet Leadership Course will be run by cadets to the maximum extent possible. Over 31 cadets will have the unique opportunity to participate in a week-long practical leadership laboratory. These cadets will fill the cadre positions and form the cadet officer corps for camp. This chapter specifies the cadre positions, rank, and duties and responsibilities.

a. First and foremost, the cadre must set the example for the other cadets in everything they do.

Nothing is more powerful than the power of example, and the instructors will demand high standards from each and every cadre cadet. Personal appearance, knowledge (handbook), physical fitness, attitude, motivation, and performance must meet exacting standards.

2. SELECTION.

a. Home unit instructors nominate cadets for cadre positions to the Cadre Advisor prior to camp. The Advisor selects cadets for positions based on the most qualified, but also strives to give each school its “fair share’ of officer positions. The equitable distribution will depend to some degree on the quality of applicants.

b. The Cadre Advisor will interview all cadre candidates during the morning session of the

Cadre Training at Smyrna High School. After considering student preferences and student experience and capabilities, selections will be made after Instructors have been consulted on the recommendations of the Cadre Advisor. Selections for all cadre positions will be announced prior to the end of the Training Day.

c. All cadre cadets should be able to pass the PFT and drill evaluation the first day of camp. If

a cadre cadet fails either test, he/she may be replaced by the Cadre Advisor with the approval of the Commandant, and discussion of the home unit SASI/ASI.

3. REMOVAL. Cadre cadets may be replaced for the following reasons:

a. Failing the PFT or drill evaluation

b. Unsatisfactory performance or inability to execute the duties of their position (injury, illness)

c. Failure to adapt to the training environment (attitude, rules violations) 4. CADRE ADVISORS. One AFJROTC instructor is designated as Cadre Advisor. The

Advisor will mentor and counsel cadet officers and evaluate Cadre performance. 5. CADRE ORGANIZATION. The cadre is divided into staff cadre and flight cadre. The

flight cadre includes all cadet training instructors (CTIs). Each flight will have a male and female cadet training instructor.

Chapter 5 *THE CURRICULUM*

1. GENERAL. The curriculum offers multi-faceted options with academic classes, drill and

ceremonies, base tours, team building, leadership, citizenship, and physical training. The curriculum is designed to help cadets develop expertise in specific areas that will be most useful to them as they assume leadership positions in their home units. The schedule is designed to impress upon them the value of time management (to show them what can be done in 5 minutes), the need to establish personal and group priorities, and the need to keep commitments they make as well as those made for them. It is our belief that this "learning by experience" will be very useful in establishing reliable and responsible conduct. Thus, the DE-CLC cadet must further develop self-control and self-discipline while at this course. Cadets who do not meet the exacting standards of conduct required at DE-CLC will be sent home.

Furthermore, DE-CLC will help the cadets develop a better understanding of loyalty and

enthusiasm for group goals. Not only must one be loyal to himself/herself, he/she must be faithful and loyal to the group. During the course of DE-CLC, we expect each cadet to transfer their loyalty to the assigned DE-CLC flight, their cadre cadets. DE-CLC cadets should have an understanding of how to affect a similar loyalty in the programs at their home unit and school. We hope to develop a strong sense of "esprit-de-corps" that can serve as motivation for future success in other endeavors.

2. ACADEMICS. Cadet academics include learning the Cadet Handbook and daily courses.

a. The first academic evaluation will be an examination on the Cadet Handbook the first day of camp. Cadets will be tested on chapters that are asterisked (*) in the Table of Contents. This exam will include the chain of command, the flight drill sequence (both must be memorized prior to arriving at camp), cadet rank, and USAF rank..

b. The academic curriculum is focused on Raider Challenge techniques. Classes will be held

outdoors. Cadets will be tested on this material at the end of the week.

c. Both tests count toward individual and flight awards. 3. DRILL AND CEREMONIES.

a. Drill and Ceremonies includes flight drill and flag raising/lowering ceremonies. In addition to practicing a formal flight drill sequence, cadets will march to and from all formations.

b. The following subjects and material will be stressed:

1). Customs and courtesies to include local recognition of officers. 2). Flight drill conducted by each cadet in turn as cadet training instructor. 3). Drill as a member of a flight. 4). Reveille Ceremonies. 5). Retreat Ceremonies.


20

c. Flight Drill Practice and Evaluation: Each cadet will be required to drill his/her assigned flight in a practice session following a prescribed routine. Each cadet will have practice opportunities with the routine before being evaluated by DE-CLC instructors. All cadets will command the flight in the flight drill competition.

4. PHYSICAL TRAINING. The physical training program includes individual/flight evaluations.

a. Physical Fitness Test (PFT). Cadets will be given the PFT, at least, twice while at camp. The first PFT will be on Monday. The second PFT will be at the end of the week and will be used for individual, flight, and unit awards.

b. Flight team sports are conducted daily, and the results count toward flight awards.

c. Field Day is on evaluation day, and the results count toward flight awards.

5. LEADERSHIP, TEAM BUILDING, CITIZENSHIP. These areas are integrated throughout

the camp and may be specifically listed in the Master Training Schedule.

6. OTHER. The curriculum also includes daily personal and dorm inspections. These inspections are meant to teach the cadet time management, attention-to-detail, and teamwork. The results of these inspections count toward individual and flight awards.

Chapter 6 *PHYSICAL TRAINING*

1. GENERAL

a. The Delaware Cadet Leadership Course Physical Training program is divided into the areas of Physical Exercise and Athletic Competition. This chapter provides guidance for planning, implementing and supervising each program.

b. DE-CLC is a strenuous, stressful experience. Home units should ensure that DE-CLC

attendees meet minimum physical fitness standards. Overweight, out-of-shape cadets frequently suffer physical stress and detract from their flight's overall performance.

c. The DE-CLC Release/Permission Form gives parental permission for each cadet to

participate in the physical training program and identifies cadet limitations. 2. PHYSICAL EXERCISE

a. Each morning, all cadets will be led through a series of warm-up, stretching and conditioning exercises. Cadets will then complete at least a one mile run.

b. Equipment: PT Clothing

c. Preliminary Announcements: During the Initial Orientation Briefing for all cadets, the

Physical Fitness Officer will announce: (1) The time and location of morning exercise. (2) The position of flights in the exercise area. (3) Cadets will bring their own workout clothing, per requirements list. (4) A warning that no one should do any activity which is painful. (5) An inclement weather alternative

d. Procedures: The Physical Fitness Officer will:

1). Arrive in the exercise area no less than 10 minutes before the scheduled time for exercises. Survey the site to ensure that it is usable.

2). Direct the primary Cadet Group/Squadron Commanders to, "Take the Report," when all Flights are in place.

3). Receive the “Report” and then place the group “At Ease”. 4). Have cadets “Count off” exercises as they are performed. 5). Give exercises in sets of 10 or more. 6). Give cadets a reasonable amount of recovery time between exercises. 7). Progress from easiest to most strenuous exercises. Begin with stretching. Move on to

arm and body rotations. Warm-up with running in place and “jumping jacks”. Move on to sit-ups and push-ups. Conclude with daily runs.

8). After the run, do a complete stretch out to finish the exercise period. 9). Direct Cadet training instructors to, “Take command of your flights”. 10). The Cadet Cadre will monitor and participate in daily PT.

3. ATHLETIC COMPETITION.

a. Athletic competition reinforces the physical aspects of DE-CLC, builds “esprit de corps” and provides supervised activities for all cadets during early evening hours. Kickball, volleyball, ultimate, and Australian Trolley races provide an opportunity for males and females to compete on common teams.

b. Facilities: One kickball field, two ultimate fields, one volleyball area, and a field for

Australian Trolleys are required.

c. Equipment: Three volleyballs, four kick balls, two ultimate balls, two sets of Australian Trolleys, nine whistles, two stopwatches and flight score sheets are required.

d. Instructor Assistance: Flight Advisors will monitor their flights.

e. The cadre will act as umpires, referees, timekeepers, and score keepers.

f. Procedures: The designated SASI/ASI in charge of sports will be responsible for delivering all

equipment to the competition site. He will also monitor the Cadre to insure that the scheduled Cadre:

(1) Arrive at the competition area no less than 10 minutes before scheduled game time, in

order to check on the condition of all facilities. (2) Supervise the distribution of equipment and brief the rules prior to each game. (3) All cadets must play on a rotation basis. (4) Settle all disputes or any protest over rules interpretation. (5) Ensure that the area is policed and all equipment is retrieved. (6) Fill out the score sheets for the events being umpired and turn the sheets into the Sports

SASI/ASI. 4. TEAM SPORTS RULES. See next page.

24

FLIGHT SPORTS RULES

TUG-OF WAR: This will be a standard tug-of-war with 12 cadets from one flight pulling against 12 cadets from the

opposing flight. There will be a minimum requirement established as to how many females must be on each team (8 males/4 females). If time permits, each flight will compete against all other flights. Starting position will be in the down position of a push-up with the cadet’s feet closest to the rope. The commands will be, “On your mark…get set….UP…….. PULL”.

AUSTRALIAN TROLLEY: This is a timed event. The team with the fastest time wins the maximum points; the team with the

second fastest time wins the second highest points available, and so on. If two teams have the same time, they will split the available points for their two positions.

All team members must be used (up to twenty). From completely behind the starting line, 10 flight members will maneuver the boards completely past the halfway point (turn-around line), get off the boards, and let any new team members take control of the boards. The new 10 members will turn the boards completely around (making sure the boards remain totally past the turn-around line, and maneuver the boards back to the starting line. When both boards are completely past the starting line, the clock will stop. The team's score will be based on its best time for this event--not how it did in its race against the other team. The objective of this event is to work as a team--if a team is violating the norm of fair play, the referee will not count the time for that race. There should be enough time when scheduled for this event to try it 3 to 4 times; remember the best time wins the most points.

KICKBALL: The basic rules of baseball & softball apply. Each team will consist of all team

members up to 10 players (short fielder is the extra position). ADDITIONAL RULES: 1. Each kicker will be allowed only 1 foul ball; the second foul ball will be an OUT. Three bad pitches

(judged by the referees) will result in the kicker being awarded a base hit and going to 1st base. 2. After a kicker kicks the ball, a fielder may either catch the ball in the air for an out, catch the ball after

it has touched the ground and throw it to the base before the kicker can get to the base, or throw the ball at the kicker and hit the kicker only BELOW the neck for an out. If the kicker (runner) jumps or ducks and the ball hits them, the kicker is out.

3. Do not make a pitch at the beginning of an inning until cleared by the referee. 4. An inning is three outs per team. Each team will be given the same number of "at bats" in the allotted

time to determine the winner. If the team that batted first is at bat and scoring runs when time runs out, the score will revert to the prior completed inning. If at the end of play (time), there is a tie, the teams will split the points available for that event.

25

ULTIMATE:

Ultimate is a non-contact sport with each team consisting of nine players. The object is to move the ball down the field by passing it among team members (not letting it touch the ground) and scoring goals by catching the ball in the end zone. Each time the ball is caught in the correct end zone by a team, one point is earned. The field and end zones will be marked by cones.

RULES: 1. Games will consist of two 18 minute halves (with a 5 minute break in between)--the clock starts when

the first "throw off" occurs and stops at halftime. Injury time-outs will only be called by the referee; however, the clock will not stop. No other time outs are allowed.

2. Substitutions can only be made when the clock is stopped, during halftime, or immediately after a

team scores a goal (prior to the next "throw off"). 3. Jerseys, caps, or different color "T" shirts will be worn by one team to help differentiate a team

member from an opponent. 4. To start the game, the referee picks a number or flips a coin, and the lowest lettered team calls heads or

tails or a number first. The winner of the flip gets to choose between receiving the "throw off" or which goal to defend (these choices will be reversed at the beginning of the second half). After an injury time-out, play resumes at the spot where the ball was last in play.

5. To begin the game, each team stands with at least one foot on its receiving line. The "throw off" team's

server will state the score, "3 serving 1, ready to serve Sir/Ma'am". The receiving team captain will reply, "Ready to receive Sir/Ma'am". Then the referee will signal for the "throw off" by blowing the whistle. Both teams must remain in place until the whistle is blown and the server releases the ball. Once the ball is released, all players may move in any direction; however, no player on the serving team may touch the ball until it is touched by the receiving team.

6. If on the "throw off", the receiving team catches the ball, play begins from that spot. If the receiving

team touches the ball and the ball then hits the ground, the throwing team takes possession where it was touched. If the receiving team lets the ball fall untouched to the ground and then picks it up after a couple of bounces, play begins from that spot immediately with no whistle. If the ball goes out-of-bounds before being touched, play begins at the point it went out of bounds or the 50-yard line (whichever is better for the receiving team). If it was touched and then goes out-of-bounds, the throwing team will start play where it went out. Except when untouched on the initial “throw off”, anytime the ball goes out-of-bounds, possession will change. If a team gains possession of the ball in the end zone, play will begin from the throw-off line closest to that goal line.

7. The ball must be thrown; any other method of transfer will result in a possession change. The receiver

must establish a pivot foot and may rotate 360 degrees but cannot lift the pivot foot. A thrower may not catch his/her own throw unless another player touches it first, unless he/she is the only person left on that team (he/she must still throw the ball at least 5 feet). Opponents must stay at least three (3) feet from the thrower and cannot make contact with the thrower or ball. If the team with the ball makes a pass and the ball is blocked (touched) by a defender before being touched by a receiver, it is a live ball and play will continue (no whistle).

26

8. After catching a pass, the new thrower is allowed to take three (3) steps before stopping and establishing a pivot foot. If the new thrower takes more than three steps or moves his/her pivot foot, possession changes. If the ball is caught simultaneously by an offensive and defensive player, the offensive team retains possession. The thrower may tag (softly, so as not to hurt the opponent) a defensive player who violates the three-foot rule, if he/she can do so without moving his/her pivot foot. No tagging may take place while taking the three steps. To be considered a good pass, the ball must travel a minimum of five (5) feet between team members and not touch the ground. If a pass is made, and, before it can be caught, a defender knocks it to the ground, it will be considered a live ball—no whistle will be blown and play will continue. Either team can pick the ball up off the ground and pass it to a fellow teammate.

9. FOULS: Fouls occur when:

a. opposing team or same team players make contact; b. safety is jeopardized by reckless behavior; c. the three-foot rule is violated and the defensive player is tagged with the ball; d. a player other than the team captain talks to the referee; e. a player hits an opponent with the ball too hard when trying to tag the opponent; and f. a player jumps--NO JUMPING ALLOWED BY ANYONE!!!

10. When a foul occurs, possession of the ball changes at the point of the infraction. The guilty player is

sent to the penalty box and must do 10 push-ups or 15 sit-ups (his/her choice). 11. PENALTY BOX: When a foul occurs, the guilty player/players are sent to the penalty box to do their

physical exercise and await the next score or end of a half before they can be released. Once a score occurs or half ends, the team captain must request his/her players be released from the penalty box.

12. TURNOVERS: Turnovers occur when:

a. a thrower takes more than three (3) steps; b. a player holds the ball for more than 5 seconds (all throws must occur within 5 seconds); or c. a pass falls incomplete and has not been touched by a defender or is thrown out-of-bounds-- the

opposing team assumes possession of the ball from the spot where the pass was attempted. d. a pass is intercepted by the defense--if an interception occurs, play begins immediately

from that spot without a whistle (keep on playing). e. a thrower passes/throws the ball less than five feet.

13. SCORING: A point is scored when a player catches the ball in his/her opponent's end zone. The ball

must be caught in the end zone. A player cannot score by stepping into the end zone with the ball. If a player's momentum carries him/her into the end zone, play will continue and another throw must be made to score a point.

14. All decisions by the referees will be final.

27

RELAY RACES: This will be a timed event using the entire flight together as one team. The team with the fastest time wins the maximum points; the team with the second fastest time wins the second highest number of points and so on. If two teams have the exact time, and are in the points, they will split the available points for their two positions. On the command "GO", a team using three (3) of its members will carry two boards past a turn-around point and return to the starting point to hand the boards to the next set of three team members to repeat the run. This will happen until all team members have raced at least once and the team has raced 8 times down the field and back. If the flight does not have 24 different members, it must use everyone once and whoever it chooses to run the relay a second time. No member can run the relay more than two times. Time starts when the first three members start and ends when the 22nd, 23rd, and 24th cadets complete the 8th relay leg. (Balloon race may be substituted for this event.)

TEAM SIT-UPS: 10-12 cadets (6/8 males and 3/5 females) will lock arms, place hands on their own chest, and perform sit-ups as a team. The entire team must come up together, or the sit-up will not count. The object is to do as many sit-ups as you can as a team in the time allotted. DODGE BALL--AFJROTC STYLE: 1. Dodge ball is played on a 100 ft. by 50 ft. court divided into two smaller 50 ft. squares. All but three members of a flight occupy one of the 50 ft. squares and send three of its members to the sides of the other 50 ft. square to be throwers. The ball used is a standard kickball. A coin toss is used to determine which team gets the ball first. There is a region extending 10-12 ft. from either side of the center line designated as a "no-throw zone" which only applies to throwers on the outside of the squares. Throwers can go into the no-throw zone to recover the ball, but then must move back to the 38-40 remaining ft. on that side before throwing. Three members of each flight are selected to stand on the outside of each of the three sides to start the game. The throwers may move anywhere outside the court to retrieve the ball, but may not cross over the centerline. 2. Flight members inside the square must do one of the following when the ball is thrown at them: (a) Get out of the way and dodge the ball; (b) Catch the ball and throw it at an opponent in the adjoining square; (c) Catch the ball and throw it to your own throwers who are outside the adjoining square or another flight

member in the square with him/her, so they can throw the ball at the opposing flight; (d) Get hit by the ball and move to the outside of the adjoining square as a thrower;

(e) Try to catch the ball and miss it (the ball must remain in your hands)--counts just like being hit by the ball--become an outside thrower; and

(f) Pick up a ball that is rolling/loose on the ground inside his/her square and proceed under rules 2 (b) or 2 (c) from above.

3. Flight members determined to be hit (eliminated) will become throwers around the outside of the adjoining square, ultimately building a wall around the opposing team. All rules that apply to the original throwers apply to new throwers as they are hit (i.e. can't throw from the "no-throw zone", can't cross the centerline, etc.) 5. If a player tries to catch a ball, and the ball hits the ground, he/she is out. If a ball hits a member and

bounces off and is caught by another member, the hit person is out, but the person catching the ball is safe, and proceeds under rules 2 (b) or 2 (c) from above.

28

5. If a ball is thrown into a square and before it touches anyone it bounces or starts rolling, it can be caught after bouncing any number of times. Once a member tries to catch the ball (touches it), the ball can't touch the ground again, or if it does, the member who touched it is out. If a person catches the ball and, when trying to pass it to someone in his own square, lets it hit the ground before being caught by his/her teammate, he/she will be out. If a person catches the ball and throws at an opponent or throws to a teammate on the outside of the square, it is OK for the ball to hit the ground. 6. Once a ball hits someone and hits the ground, it can be picked up by anyone in that square except the person who was just hit (under rule 2 (f) above). If a person is hit and the ball touches the ground, the hit person must not touch the ball again (not throw it/or direct it to a teammate, etc.). 7. A person can only be hit by the ball below the shoulders--NO HEAD SHOTS!!! A hit above the shoulders will not count unless the referee determines the person was bending down. Continued high throwing by a team (after one warning) will result in allowing one opponent for each incident (who has already been hit) to return to the inside of the his/her team’s area to be hit again. The same person can reenter the game under this rule only once. 8. If a person is hit by a thrower who was inside the "no-throw zone", the hit will not count. 9. No one may cross the centerline at any time--doing so will result in being called out. 10. Members inside the square may pass to their throwers outside the adjoining square or team members still remaining in their own square, and throwers outside the adjoining square may throw the ball to their teammates still inside the square. If the teammate inside the square drops a pass from his own thrower/teammate, he/she is still out. 11. The "no-throw zone" only applies when outside the square. If you are still inside the square and you catch the ball, you can move right up to the centerline and throw at an opponent in the adjoining square. Remember--if you are inside the square there is no such thing as a "no-throw zone". 12. When a predetermined number of people have been eliminated, a second ball will be thrown in to increase the game's difficulty (it will be given to the throwers with the most opponents left). 13. When all of one flight has been hit, the other team wins. If the game lasts longer than the scheduled time, the team with the most players remaining on the court wins. More than one game can be played in the allotted time, so the overall winning flight will be the one who wins the most games or has the most people left on the court at the end of the time. If there is a perfect tie at the end of the scheduled time, the two teams will split the points available. Circle Ball: Circle Ball is a non-contact sport with each team consisting of nine players, one is

known as the goal keeper. The field is rectangular. The object is to move the ball down the field by passing/rolling it among team members and scoring goals by passing or rolling the ball through the goal in the direction of travel owned by each team. Each time the ball is passed through in the correct direction by a team, one point is earned. The goal is located in the center of the field with a circle (known as the key) around the goal. The circle will be marked by spray paint. The field will be marked by cones. Circle ball encompasses the basics of basketball and lacrosse.

29

RULES: 1. Games will consist of two 15-minute halves (with a break in between)--the clock starts when the first "jump off" occurs and stops at halftime. Injury time-outs will only be called by the referee; however, the clock will not stop. No other time outs are allowed. 2. Substitutions can only be made during halftime or immediately after a team scores a goal (prior to the next "throw off"). Substitutions, if extra players are available, MUST be made after each score. 3. Jerseys, caps, or different color "T" shirts will be worn by one team to help differentiate a team member from an opponent. 4. To start the game, the referee will have the two team captains face each other at the half-field point near the center circle. The remainder of the team will be positioned at attention on the end line and can move into position once the “jump-off” has occurred. Goalies will be in place just outside the key and can move into the key once the jump has occurred; they cannot retrieve the ball for their team. The referee will throw the ball into the air and play will begin (the second half will start the same way as the first). After an injury time-out, play resumes at the spot where the ball was last at.

a. The team controlling the “jump-off” must first take the ball to the end line on their end of the court before moving towards the goal to attempt to score. The end line will be marked by cones about 40 feet behind the goal. There is an end line for each side of the field and is in play during the jump off and each score (see number 5 below).

b. All players may touch the ball with any part of the body except the feet, but they may not hold or rest the majority of their weight on the ball. c. Movement of the ball may be accomplished by passing the ball or dribbling the ball while moving. Dribbling is allowed for a maximum of three dribbles using one or both hands. At that point, the player must stop and pass the ball to a teammate. 5. To begin after a score, the scoring team's captain will call his/her team to attention and have the team fall in on its throw-off line on its side of the goal at the position of attention. The receiving team (just scored on) line up in element formation at the end line five yard inside the back boundary. They then state the score, “Flight score (Alfa 2), other flight’s score (Bravo 1), ready to serve, Sir/Ma’am”. The receiving team captain will reply, "Ready to receive Sir/Ma'am". Then the referee will signal for the start by blowing the whistle. Both teams must remain in place until the whistle is blown, the scoring team then “throws-off” in any direction they desire however they may not leave the throw-off line until the ball is touched by the opposing team. Any throw-off that goes out of bounds will result in the ball being placed on the receiving team’s “throw-off line” ten yards from the goal. The ball will be put in play on a whistle from the referee. Goalkeepers may not move into place in the circle until the ball is touched in play 6. If the receiving team lets the ball fall untouched to the ground and then picks it up after a couple of bounces, play begins from that spot immediately with no whistle. If the ball goes out-of-bounds before being touched, play begins at the point it went out of bounds or the 50-yard line (whichever is better for the receiving team). If it was touched and then goes out-of-bounds, the throwing team will start play where it went out. Except when untouched on the initial “throw off”, the last team to touch a ball that goes out of bounds loses possession of the ball. 7. The ball must be thrown or rolled; any other method of transfer will result in a possession change. The receiver must establish a pivot foot and may rotate 360 degrees but cannot lift the pivot foot.

30

A thrower may not catch his/her own throw unless another player touches it first, or he/she is the only person left on that team (he/she must still throw the ball at least 5 feet). Opponents must stay at least three (3) feet from the thrower and cannot make contact with the thrower or ball. If the team with the ball makes a pass and the ball is blocked (touched) by a defender before being touched by a receiver, it is a live ball and play will continue (no whistle). On all turnovers/dead balls, the referee will blow the whistle to resume play. 8. If running to catch a pass, the new thrower is allowed to take three (3) steps before stopping and establishing a pivot foot-- then the thrower is allowed only three (3) dribbles. If standing still and catching a pass, the new thrower cannot take any steps unless they dribble the ball and then the thrower is still only allowed three (3) dribbles. If running and the new thrower takes more than three steps, takes any steps if standing still with the ball without dribbling, or moves his/her pivot foot, possession changes. If the ball is caught simultaneously by an offensive and defensive player, the offensive team retains possession. The thrower may tag (softly, so as not to hurt the opponent) a defensive player who violates the three-foot rule, if he/she can do so without moving his/her pivot foot. No tagging may take place while taking the three steps. To be considered a good pass, the ball must travel a minimum of five (5) feet between team members. If a pass is made, and, before it can be caught/picked up, a defender deflects it, the ball will be considered live—no whistle will be blown and play will continue. Either team can pick the ball up off the ground and pass/roll it to a fellow teammate. 9. FOULS: Fouls occur when: (a) opposing team or same team players make contact; (b) safety is jeopardized by reckless behavior (diving, hitting the ground, etc.); (c) the three-foot rule is violated and the defensive player is tagged with the ball; (d) a player other than the team captain talks to the referee; (e) a player hits an opponent with the ball too hard when trying to tag the opponent; and (f) a player jumps--NO JUMPING ALLOWED BY ANYONE!!! (g) a defensive player touches the ball on a “throw-off” before an offensive player touches it. 10. When a foul occurs, possession of the ball changes at the point of the infraction. The guilty player is sent to the penalty box and must do 10 push-ups or 15 sit-ups (his/her choice). 11. PENALTY BOX: When a foul occurs, the guilty player/players are sent to the penalty box to do their physical exercise and await the next score or end of a half before they can be released. A player must request permission to enter the penalty box, request permission to begin push-ups/sit-ups, and request permission to recover when finished with push-ups/sit-ups. Once a score occurs or half ends, the team captain must request by name his/her players be released from the penalty box by stating, “Alfa Flight request permission to retrieve Cadets Smith, Jones, etc. from the penalty box, Sir or Ma’am”. 12. TURNOVERS: Turnovers occur when:

(a) a thrower takes more than three (3) steps if running, any steps if standing still without dribbling, or dribbles more than 3 times.

(b) a player holds the ball for more than 5 seconds (all throws/rolls must occur within 5 seconds); (c) a pass/roll is thrown out-of-bounds without being touched by a defender-- the opposing team assumes

possession of the ball from the spot where the ball went out-of-bounds. (d) a pass/roll is intercepted by the defense--if an interception occurs, play begins immediately

from that spot without a whistle (keep on playing). (e) a thrower passes/throws/rolls the ball less than five feet and is blown dead by the referee. 13. SCORING: A point is scored when the ball goes through the goal in the offensive direction. 14. All decisions by the referees will be final.

Chapter 7 *DORMS*

DORMITORY ARRANGEMENT The information contained in this guide is very important to your success in the Delaware Cadet Leadership Course (DE-CLC). Your Cadet Training Instructors (CTIs) inspect the dormitory daily to ensure the overall appearance conforms to current directives and policies, and to ensure you maintain it properly. Due to the limited amount of space, it is necessary to require that each item be displayed in a specified manner and area. Your success in this leadership course depends largely on your conforming to Air Force JROTC standards by displaying your ability to follow detailed instructions. This will be measured throughout your training with emphasis placed on dormitory arrangement. To avoid confusion, clothing items are referred to in a gender neutral manner unless referring to specifically male or female items.

SAMPLES OF BEHAVIOR 1. Be able to prepare and maintain dorm living areas with no more than the allowable discrepancies. 2. Employ teamwork in properly maintaining dorm living areas. 3. Be able to follow instructions and pay attention to detail while maintaining living areas within acceptable standards. 4. Apply material in this guide and understand that responsibility for the use of this material lies with the individual trainee.

OBJECTIVE Given this dorm arrangement guide, maintain your dorm area with NO more than the total allowable discrepancies in each of the following areas

- Bed - End-of-Bed Display - Shoe Display - Personal Floor Area - Wall Locker - Clothing Drawers - Personal Hygiene Drawer

Graded Dormitory Inspection. You will have one informal and one formal dormitory evaluation during your time at the leadership course. The informal evaluation will be used for feedback to each trainee and does not count towards CLC graduation. The formal evaluation is based on a 70% passing where one point will be deducted from 100 for each discrepancy. You will receive either a Satisfactory or an Unsatisfactory grade for the inspection, depending on the amount of discrepancies. A re-evaluation will be conducted for Unsatisfactory ratings for the overall score or for exceeding the maximum allowable discrepancies for each of the separate areas. Personal Area. Your personal area consists of your wall locker, clothing drawers and personal hygiene drawer. Your personal living area consists of your bed, end-of-bed display, shoe display, and floor area. It is YOUR responsibility to maintain all of your areas according to the Delaware CLC standards. Rating Chart. The following chart identifies the four personal areas of the dormitory evaluation and the MAXIMUM number of discrepancies allowed in each area along with the total discrepancies allowed. A failure in any one area will result in a failing grade for the inspection. Any area failed will be re-inspected not later than the next training day.

MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE DISCREPANCIES

AREA MAXIMUM DISCREPANCIES

PERSONAL LIVING AREA 9

WALL LOCKER 7

CLOTHING DRAWERS (Both combined) 7

PERSONAL HYGIENE DRAWER 7

Total Discrepancies Allowed 30

32

The results of the evaluations will be

recorded by the DE-CLC Inspections Officer on the DE-CLC Form 4.

Use this form to correct your discrepancies and learn from your mistakes. DO NOT write on the DE-CLC Form 4.

General Instructions: The head end of the bed for the trainee in the bottom bunk is at the center isle end of the bed and the upper bunk is at the window end. The inspection side of the bed is the side of the bed closest to the wall locker. Keep the bed rails clean and free of dust. Items placed on the bed must be clean, dry, and serviceable. Mattress Cover – Smooth out the mattress cover on the mattress. Bottom Sheet – Drape evenly over the width of the mattress ensuring the bottom edge is flush with the foot end of the mattress. Tuck the excess material under the head end of the mattress. To form hospital corners, grasp the side of the sheet approximately 12 inches from the head end of the mattress. Lay the material on top of the mattress, creating a 45-degree angle. Tuck the excess material hanging down under the mattress.

*DRILL AND CEREMONIES*

1. GENERAL. This chapter contains procedures for drill evaluation and reveille/retreat formation. Leadership training is one of the major objectives of Air Force Junior ROTC at every location where cadet training takes place. One of the simplest and most effective ways to teach leadership is through individual and unit drill. Drill is a necessary skill in the military profession and, when done well, has a unifying effect that promotes discipline, teamwork, and esprit de corps within the unit. For the individual, drill can be a major factor in the development of poise, neatness, precision, confidence, and high morale. 2. PROCEDURES a. The drill practice area will be determined on the first day of DE-CLC and will be briefed by the instructor in charge. Flights will be notified as to when and where they will practice. b. All flights will practice at their specified time; Cadet training instructors with the help of Staff Cadre and Flight Advisors (SASIs and ASIs) are responsible for training their flights on proper procedures. c. The drill sequence is listed below. Each command will be given in the proper sequence. Any deviation will result in a loss of points. d. Each cadet in the flight will command the flight through the sequence. Cadets must remain in the designated drill area or points will be subtracted.

e. During the evaluation, each cadet will “REPORT IN” to the appropriate Evaluator. (See drill sequence.)
