  Scouters' Key Award
 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:
(the Cubmaster's Key may still be worn by those Cubmasters earning this
award prior to the start of the present Cubmaster Award (1987) although
Cubmasters may NOT earn the Key anymore.)
Boy Scouters: Scoutmaster
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.
