Boy Scout Youth Training-ILST Course

The purpose of the Introduction to Leadership Skills for Troops course is to teach Scouts with leadership positions about their new roles and how to most effectively reach success in that role. It is intended to help Boy Scouts in leadership positions within their troop understand their re-sponsibilities and to equip them with organizational and leadership skills to fulfill those responsi-bilities. This is the first course in the series of leadership training offered to Boy Scouts and is a prerequisite for Boy Scouts to participate in the National Youth Leadership Train-ing (NYLT). Scouts should be First Class and above. If you have Scouts that have already taken this course, it could serve as review for a new position. A Scoutmaster or ASM should attend with their Scouts and are invited to be part of the training. Course is led by Scoutmaster Grant Evans and ASM Arnold Feintuck.

Den Chief Training is also being offered — held during but separate from the ILST Course.

Limited to 10 Scouts. Sign up with Arnold Feintuck at the above registration box.

Leadership in Boy Scouting is a vital part of the Scouting program. Boy Scouts in positions of leadership run the troop. They take care of the many tasks necessary for troop and patrol meet-ings and activities to run smoothly. By accepting the responsibilities of troop leadership, Scouts are preparing themselves to be leaders throughout their lives.

Troops & Crews Get Your Team in place...

ULTIMATE LEAGUE

BEING ORGANIZED

At ConnJam we had 15 teams and 165 boys participated in an Ultimate

Tournament. At the captain meeting we discussed the possibility of having

formal games after ConnJam.

“My name is Jack, I was a team captain at ConnJam… I had a blast

at playing Frisbee and wanted to know if it would become a full year

league. Additionally, I know scouts from other troops that would love

to join in.”

You ask for it… You got it! Connecticut Yankee Council will be organizing a

“ULTIMATE LEAGUE” open to all registered Boy Scouts and Venturers in the

Connecticut Yankee Council for the 2018-19 Program Year.

Ultimate is a fun, fast-paced team sport that combines the nonstop movement and athletic endurance of soccer

with the aerial passing skills of football using a flying disc. Ultimate relies on sportsmanship, invoking the "Spirit of

the Game" to maintain fair play. Ultimate players will demonstrate mutual respect for teammates and opponents

alike, which develops character, leadership, self-reliance, and conflict -resolution skills

Highlights:

This would be a youth-led activity. The honor system works in ultimate, just

like in Scouting. Typically, there are no officials. Players are responsible for

playing fair, calling their own fouls, and making their own out-of-bounds calls.

Team Captains would form a Counseling Board representing their

teams setting up guidelines, games rules, scheduling, etc.

Each team will consist of youth (under 18 years of age) properly registered

with a Boy Scout Troop or Venturing Crew.

A regulation game has 7 players on each team. Each team can have up to

11 to allow for substitutes.

We would allow smaller Troops/Crew to combine youth to make up a team.

Each team would register a team captain and one adult to serve as a

team advisor.

We may limit the number of teams to make this manageable.

Teams would be encouraged to develop an Ultimate Team t-shirt.

Teams or Districts can coordinate a tournament. Any of our Council camps

can provide playing fields as well as public locations (with permission).

We would organize a BIG Championship Tournament in the Spring. All teams

can play.

Do you want to play Ultimate? Sign-up your Team at http://eepurl.com/dwC6Rb

You will need contact information for a Youth Team Captain and a Adult Advisor to complete the form. Once we get

10 teams, we will notify of an organization meeting.
