We’re excited to offer an upcoming Cub Scout Rangemaster Training for those interested in helping run BB gun, slingshot, and archery ranges at Council and District events.
Shooting sports are often a highlight of a Cub Scout’s experience, and helping Scouts learn these skills in a safe, supportive environment can be incredibly rewarding. We hope you’ll consider getting trained and joining us!

Registration: https://scoutingevent.com/023- 115073
Training Overview:
- Required for anyone volunteering as a Cub Scout BB Gun/Slingshot or Archery Rangemaster
- Certification is valid for two years
- Participants are asked to assist with two District or Council events during that time (such as Day Camps, Camporees, Webelorees, AOL-o-Rees, or other Cub Scout shooting sports activities)
- No prior experience needed
Requirements to Participate:
- Must be a registered Scouts BSA adult volunteer
- Must have completed Safeguarding Youth Training (SYT)
- Must be at least 18 years old
Important Notes:
- The Cub Scout Archery Rangemaster certification allows you to run archery activities at the district/council level for Cub Scouts (Lions through AOL), but not at the troop or crew level. A USA Archery Level 1 certification is required for those events.
-
The Cub Scout BB Rangemaster certification does allow you to run BB gun and slingshot activities at the Scouts BSA troop/crew level.
We’d love to have more trained volunteers to help deliver safe and fun shooting sports programs for our Scouts.
