Cub Scout Archery requirements | ![]() | ||||||||||||||||||||||
Archery, like BB-gun shooting, is a camp program. Boys can earn archery recognition items only at council/district day camp, resident camp, or council-managed family camping programs. Archery programs are not permitted at den and pack activities. However, leaders can help parents understand the importance of training and encourage attendance of boys at Cub Scout camps that offer this training. To be a qualified and trained archery range supervisor, adults must take part in an archery supervisor training program conducted by the local council with the help of a National Camping School-certified field sports director or a National Archery Association (NAA) instructor. The Archery belt loop and pin can only be awarded by a BSA range-trained shooting-sports director. Belt Loop RequirementsCub Scouts and Webelos Scouts can earn the archery belt loop by participating in the archery safety program at Cub Scout camp. Complete these three requirements:
Sports Pin RequirementsEarn the Archery belt loop, and complete five of the following requirements:
Cub Scout Shooting Sports Award Certificate RequirementsBefore firing the Pro Archer course, the camper is to complete the following:
Pro Archer Level Shoot five groups (three arrows per group) trying to group each set within a circle the size of the nine-ring. (No specific score is required.) Then fire for the Pro Archer score.
In Cub Scout archery, the camp awards the certificate when the Cub Scout or Webelos Scout qualifies for the different levels of recognition. It is possible to earn four certificates if every level of marksmanship has been accomplished.
