. "A Scout (in some countries a Boy Scout, Girl Scout or Pathfinder) is a boy or a girl, usually 11\u201318 years of age, participating in the worldwide Scouting movement. Because of the large age and development span, many Scouting associations have split this age group into a junior and a senior section. Scouts are organized into troops averaging 20\u201330 Scouts under the guidance of one or more Scout Leaders."@en . .
