Pioneering projects are judged on design, the correctness and tightness of lashings.
The Northrand District recently held its annual pioneering competition, with teams competing to build a tower with a drawbridge that would enable it to link up to other towers.

The event was held at the 1st Hellenic Scout Hall where the 1st Bedfordview Troop won the coveted trophy.
A skilled pioneer can build bridges, towers, catapults, rafts and other objects with ropes and poles – no nails, screws or other fasteners are allowed.
Pioneering projects are judged on their design, the correctness and tightness of lashings, as well as adherence to safety protocols and leadership.
