Cub Scouts Academics and Sports Program
The third aim 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). This program is not a highly competitive program, instead, the boys are encouraged to DO THEIR BEST.
The Academic and Sports Program is an optional program for all Cub Scouts. It is not part of the normal requirements towards ranks, except where used in obtaining various Webelos activity badges and Wolf Elective 20 (Sports). Its purpose is to assist the Scouts in learning a new skill, or improving one they already posses.
Loops and pins can be earned by all Cub Scouts!
The US Scouting Service Project has a wealth of information about all things Cubs and Boy Scouts including blogs and forums.
