Scout Lord Derby 2023

About the Scout Lord Derby….

• First and foremost, the idea of the event is to be an enjoyable day for the participants to try out new activities and challenges.
• The bases will test their teamwork, communication, and basic scouting skills. As there will be a mixture of bases it is hoped that each team will find something that plays to their strengths.
• Each participating team must provide and run a base with two leaders, and you provide all equipment. The details of the base must be provided at time of entry.Bases will be 25 minutes in total and there will be 5 minutes clearing away/moving on time. Teams will not leave their base to move on until the whistle is sounded to avoid arriving early at the next base. The marking scheme will be out of ten for the following categories: leadership, teamwork and achieving the task.
