Welcome to the Yorkshire Regiment Association

Regimental History

The Yorkshire Regiment is the only true County regiment remaining in the British Army.  Building on 330 years of history, our soldiers have been deployed on every recent operation and training mission across the globe and we are now focussed on making sure that we are the best recruited, best trained and best prepared infantry regiment we can possibly be.  As one of the premier infantry regiments in the Army, we have established a reputation for operational and sporting excellence that Yorkshire can be proud of and created a unique identity as Yorkshire’s Warriors.  We could not have achieved this without the support of the communities we represent and the towns that we recruit from.  Our connection with Yorkshire is vitally important to our soldiers and we value the strong relationships we have with our local councils and communities, sporting clubs, cadet and youth organisations, charities and veterans’ associations.  Regular or Reserves, Cadets and Veterans; all are part of a regimental family that spans the whole county.
