Old Skippers' Key Award knot emblem (1947-1955)
Skippers' Key Award (1943-1955)

Description: Uniform emblem is composed of a green and white rope on a khaki-tan background, with green rope toward the wearer's right as shown. Earlier versions of this knot emblem had white or dark blue backgrounds for wear with Sea Scouting/Scouting whites and Sea Scouting/Scouting dress uniforms and with kelly green background and border. The white and green knot on the khaki-tan background and border is default for all members; all of the other knot emblems shown are older versions of the award. Only the khaki-tan version is available through the BSA's Supply Division. White and green knot comes from the green, white and green striped ribbon color of medal (shown below).

Background: The Scouters' Key Award can be presently earned by the following groups of Scouters:

Varsity Scouters: Coach

Venturing Leaders: Advisor

Sea Scouting Leaders: Skipper

District/Council Scouters: Cub Scout, Boy Scout, Varsity Scout Venturing Roundtable/Huddle Commissioners,, Unit, Assistant District and District Commissioners, and District Committeemembers

There are different requirements covering basic training, performance, tenure, and certification for the award. Scouters earning the Training Key in one program area MUST complete ALL requirements (including tenure) for subsequent training Keys in other program areas.

At one time, there existed a separate Skipper Key with a square knot in deep blue and white, as shown to the left. Skippers earning the earlier Skipper's Key may wear the older medal and knot emblem or the current Scouters' Key Award medal and knot emblem. The medal and the knot emblem shown are no longer available through the BSA's Supply Division.
