Scout Badge Courses
There are a number of Sea Scout courses offered by the WC Region over the calendar year. A full list can be found under Scout Badge Courses if you Click Here.
Please note that most of the Sea Scout courses below require scouts to hold the Swimming Badge at a bare minimum. Without it the application will fail. The onus is on the scout’s troop to ensure that courses for this badge are held as the region does not offer it.
