There are five types of awards available to Cub Scout Leaders: The Cubmaster Award, the Webelos Leader Award, the Den Leader Award, the Tiger Den Leader Award, and the Cub Scouter Award. Each of the awards requires time spent registered and serving as the position the award is named for, except for the Cub Scouter award, which may be earned by serving in any registered position including Pack Committee Chair, Pack Committee Member, and Chartered Organization Representative. It can also be earned by Direct Leaders (the other four categories) as long as tenure counted toward the Cub Scouter Award is not also counted toward any other award.

The individual seeking the award should date and initial each requirement as it is completed. No award request will be accepted unless training, tenure and performance are completely filled out as required. Each award then requires certain signatures before it is turned in, as indicated on the form. The required district signatures may be obtained from a Commissioner, District Executive or District Training Chairman. Please do not send the award request in to Council without the required signatures.

The requirements for each award can be found in the current Cub Scout Leader Book. They are also shown in the table below. A copy of the form from the Leader Book should be completed by the applicant, the necessary signatures obtained, and turned in to the District Training Chair, District Commissioner or District Professional (Director or Executive). It is a good idea to keep a copy of the form for your records.
