Cubtopia · 8th NSW Cuboree
Your Unit is home for the week: where you camp, cook, eat and sleep, with up to 36 Cub Scouts and a team of adults who look after them.
36 Cub Scouts in 6 Patrols of 6, with a Unit Leader, a Health & Wellbeing Leader, 4 Assistant Unit Leaders and 3 Unit Assistants, plus a Carer for any Cub Scout who needs one.
Patrols are the Unit's call, but a mix of ages and abilities, led by a Patrol Leader and Assistant Patrol Leader, works best: many activities are built for teams of six.
One Line Leader (Leader or Rover Scout) for every 6 Cub Scouts, always at least a Unit Leader and a Health & Wellbeing Leader. Two Unit Assistants, or three once the Unit has 30 or more Cub Scouts.
| Cub Scouts | Line Leaders | Unit Assistants | Adults |
|---|---|---|---|
| Up to 12 | 2 (UL, H&W) | 2 | 4 |
| 13 to 18 | 3 (UL, H&W, 1 AUL) | 2 | 5 |
| 19 to 24 | 4 (UL, H&W, 2 AUL) | 2 | 6 |
| 25 to 29 | 5 (UL, H&W, 3 AUL) | 2 | 7 |
| 30 | 5 (UL, H&W, 3 AUL) | 3 | 8 |
| 31 to 36 | 6 (UL, H&W, 4 AUL) | 3 | 9 |
Line Leaders are the Unit Leader, the Health & Wellbeing Leader and the Assistant Unit Leaders. See Pricing, Roles & Eligibility for who can register in each role, and the FAQs for more about Units.
The Unit Leader travels on Cuboree transport to and from Cuboree with their Unit. They can't travel independently.
One job each. A Unit role is that person's Cuboree job, and they camp with the Unit all week.
Adults grow with the Unit. One Line Leader for every six Cub Scouts, always at least a Unit Leader and a Health & Wellbeing Leader.
Carers stay with their Cub, in the same Unit, on top of the Unit's adults.
Youth Service Leaders have their own Units in the Youth Service Leader sub-camp, never in a Cub Unit.
Plan together. All of a Unit's adults plan ahead of the event and attend a pre-Cuboree Shakedown camp.
