What are Cub Scouts?
What are Cub Scouts?
For Cubs, excitement and adventure are key. They are introduced to exciting outdoor skills and take part in adventurous activities, as well as camps and residential experiences.
The Cub Pack is the third section of the Scout Group following on from Squirrels and Beavers. Cub Scouts are young people aged between 8 and 10 ½. There is flexibility in the age range: young people can join from age 7½ and can move to Scouts between age 10 and 11. It may sometimes be appropriate to extend this flexibility for young people with additional needs.
Like all our sections, Cubs is open to Girls and Boys

What Activities do Cub Scouts do?
What Activities do Cub Scouts do?
During their time in the Pack, Cub Scouts will get a chance to try a wide range of different activities as well as going on trips, days out, and on camps. Participation and personal development, rather than meeting set standards, is the key approach.
There are numerous badges and awards they can work towards and earn during their time in Cubs, and hopefully move up to Scouts having achieved their Silver Chief Scouts Award.
