There was some push for a scouting organization for younger boys almost immediately after Boy Scouting was established in England in 1907. The idea received more support in England early on. In the US the BSA was concerned that the younger aged scouting organization would siphon adult male leaders from what was considered to be the more important Boy Scouts so it was resisted.

In 1930 the BSA agreed to an experimental pilot program of "cubbing" which became official in 1933. The problem of not losing adult male leader from the Boy Scouts was solved by having the cubbing dens run by Boy Scouts called Den Chiefs who were aided by their mothers. In 1936 Den Mother's were first allowed to optionally register as Scouting leaders and in 1948 this became mandatory.

In 1976 women were first allowed to be Cubmasters and assistant Cubmasters. It took until 1988 for the BSA to remove gender qualifications for its Scoutmasters.
