Leader Awards (Square Knots)

Special awards are available for Cub Scout Leaders who complete training, tenure, and performance requirements. These awards are presented by the local district at Roundtable.

All of the awards require the completion of Fast Start Training, Basic Leader Training for the position, Youth Protection training, and participation in Roundtables or a Pow Wow or University of Scouting. Some require additional supplemental training. One or two years of registered service in the appropriate position is a requirement for each award, and tenure used for one award may not be used for another.

Embroidered square knots are worn to represent awards.  Click on the hyperlinks for individual award requirements (these are copies of the training card that you receive when you take the position specific training).
