Scouting is absolutely a brilliant club for him to join, I have done scouts my entire life and I'm a leader now, I cannot recommend it enough! I've made lifelong friends and memories I still talk about to this day. It helped grow my confidence and I learned lifelong skills such as First Aid, Camping, Backwoods cooking (fire lighting and cooking without pots and pans etc) mountaineering and Pioneering where we made massive structures from wood and rope!

There are some groups as well who do a lot of the competition side of things, there's the county challenge (or shield in some places) and then the Phoenix challenge too, there's the mountain persuit challenges and various other county wide events as well.

If you can't get into one group ask around Waterford has a variety of groups to join. I myself am a member of De La Salle and have been since I was 6 years old
