Cub Scouts / Macaoimh

Welcome

Cubs (or Macaoimh in Irish) are young people aged between 8 and 11 years.  The cubs programme is more active than Beavers to reflect that the young person is growing up. There are 10 Macaoimh sections in our region and they are by far the largest section.  Because Macaoimh are so popular many Units have more than one section to cope with the numbers.  If you are intersted in joining please look at the section below for more information.
