Tiger Scouts

In conjunction with the introduction of Family Scouting for Cub Scouts (with separate Dens for Boys and Girls), new editions of the Cub Scout Handbooks were issued in September, 2018. The new editions also incorporated the advancement changes which were published on-line in November, 2016, then released in print form as an addendum to each Handbook.

In 2020, the Protect Yourself Rules preview adventure was introduced and the notes after requirement 4 were added.

In May, 2021, BSA announced that four of the Tiger elective adventures will be retired on May 31, 2022.


  1. Complete each of the six required Adventures.

  2. In addition to the four required adventures listed above, complete at least one elective Adventure of your den's or family's choosing.

  3. With your parent, guardian, or other caring adult, complete the exercises in the pamphlet How to Protect Your Children From Child Abuse: A Parent's Guide.

  4. Earn the Cyber Chip award for your age. (The Cyber Chip portion of this requirement may be waived by your parent or guardian if you do not have access to the internet.)

Tiger Cub Scouts may also complete the Protect Yourself Rules Preview Adventure for requirement 2.

The Cyber Chip requirement (4) may be replaced with earning the Protect Yourself Rules Adventure.

If Cub Scouts use the Protect Yourself Rules Adventure in place of the Cyber Chip requirement, the adventure can not be used as an elective for rank.
