The Sports Program is an optional program for all Cub
Scouts. It is not part of the normal requirements towards ranks (except were
used in obtaining the Webelos Sportsman and Athlete activity badges). Its
purpose is to assist the Scouts in learning a new skill, or improving one
they already posses.
Tiger Cubs, Cub Scouts, and Webelos Scouts
may complete requirements in a family, den, pack, school, or community
environment.
Tiger Cubs must work with their parents or
adult partners.
Parents and partners do not earn loops or
pins.
The Cub Scout Sports Belt Loops are worn on the navy
blue Cub Scout belt. They will not fit on the khaki (olive) Boy Scout /
Webelos belt. Webelos Scouts may continue to wear the blue belt on their
uniforms.
The same belt loop may be earned once within each
rank.
Belt loops for each sport may be earned once within
each rank.
Sports belt loops are earned by the Cub by meeting the
requirements listed.
Please note there are special requirements for
the BB-Shooting and
Archery belt loops.
The Cub Scout Sports Pins are worn on civilian clothes
only. They can also be worn on the Cub Scouts Sports and Academics Letter
(pictured left). The pins are triangular in shape. The designs for the various pins
are shown on the belt loops for each subject.
Sports pins are given in each sport for Cub Scouts to
recognize physical development.
Sports pins are earned by meeting the appropriate
requirements.
Please note there are special requirements for
the BB-Shooting and
Archery sports pins.
