Beavers Sports Activity Badge

Sports badge

All sports stars started somewhere. How far can you go?

How to earn your badge:

  1. Play a team sport with the Beavers in your Colony.

    This could be a game of tennis, squash, football, basketball, rounders, cricket, netball, rugby or volleyball.

  2. Understand the rules of that sport.
  3. Take part in a sport or physical activity regularly for at least six weeks.

    Why not sign up for a six session tennis programme? LTA (Lawn Tennis Association) are offering Scouts a 10% discount on their LTA Youth Start Programme.

  4. Take part in a match, competition, show or pass an exam or achieve a grading for that sport.
  5. Show your Lodge, Colony or Explorer Scout Young Leader the skills you have learnt and the equipment you need for your sport.
