About Rover Scouts

Rover Scouts is open to young adults aged 18 to 25 years. Anyone can become a Rover Scout – there’s no need to have any previous involvement with Scouting, or any outdoor activities experience.

Rover Scouts provides great opportunities for fun, adventure, exploration and service. Rover Scouts might find themselves planning a simple weekend camping trip or helping to organise an event involving thousands of people. They also have the opportunity to earn a variety of qualifications in Business and Leadership through the Scouts Australia Institute of Training.

A group of Rovers is known as a “Rover Scout Unit”. Rover Scout Units can be comprised of members from your local area, town, city or further afield. Each Rover Scout Unit is unique so you can find a group that shares your interests from bush walking, canoeing, sailing, caving, ski-touring, canyoning, four-wheel driving, rock climbing and more!

Joining a Rover Scout Unit is the key to the experience of a lifetime and a great way to ensure you maintain a healthy balance between work/study and play. Most importantly, it will allow you to develop valuable life skills in an atmosphere of fun and adventure. No other leisure time activity offers as much.
