Rover Scouts is the B-PSA section for the over 18 year olds. There is no upper age limit for Rover Scouts and both genders are admitted.
Rover Scouts officially began in September 1918 after Scouts returning from the war wanted to continue Scouting.
Rover Scouting is the final stage in the system of training in the principles and practice of citizenship in which Beavering, Wolf Cubbing, Scouting and Senior Scouting each in turn plays its part; all five sections share the common aim - the development of good citizenship on the basis of the Scout Promise and the Scout Law.
The purpose of Rover Scouts is to facilitate the growth of young adults. Upon joining Rover Scouts, the individual will be guided to train themselves, in body, mind and spirit, for their place as a responsible member of the community. In keeping with this, the Rover motto is "Service".
