My understanding is cadets aren't even allowed to touch a functioning gun ( including pellet guns) anymore due to the outrage of parents from the east. What a sad place this world has become.
Not exactly true, we still field a crew of cadets for Canada to compete at Bisley every year and elsewhere.
There is also an army cadet winter program as well as some biathlon programs
