Belt Loops & Pins
| The Cub Scout Academics and Sports Program compliments the Scouting Program by
providing opportunities for Scouts to improve scholarship, develop sportsmanship, and
explore new games while collecting Cub Scout belt loops and pins. The emphasis of the
program is to try new things and to put forth a best effort, not of achieving proficiency
or winning. This program is one method of addressing the third value of Scouting: the
development of physical, mental and emotional fitness. Fitness includes the body
(well-tuned and healthy), the mind (able to think and solve problems), and the emotions
(self-control, courage, and self-respect).
Activities are divided into two categories: Academics and Sports. Each category has many skills and activities from which Scouts may choose. The Cub Scout belt loop and pin program encourages a boy to do his best while learning skills and promoting good sportsmanship. There are currently 23 sports activity areas: Archery, BB Gun Shooting, Badminton, Baseball, Basketball, Bicycling, Bowling, Fishing, Flag Football, Fitness, Golf, Gymnastics, Ice Skating, Marbles, Roller Skating, Snow Ski and Board Sports, Soccer, Softball, Swimming, Table Tennis, Tennis, Ultimate, Volleyball And, 17 academics activity areas: Art, Astronomy, Chess, Citizenship, Collecting, Communicating, Computers, Geography, Geology, Heritages, Language & Culture, Map & Compass, Mathematics, Music, Science, Weather, Wildlife Conservation
