Uniform Standards

Name Tag


White plastic measuring 7.5cm by 2cm worn slightly above the left breast pocket. Only the name of Boy should be engraved on it and nothing else. (refer to Handbook Picture p.22)


Appointment Holder



Boys may be appointed for the following appointments.
  • Chief Leading Boy - Red lanyard is worn
  • Leading Boy / Squad Leader - White lanyard is worn
  • Assistant Leading Boy / Assistant Squad Leader - Blue lanyard is worn.
The lanyard is worn around the collar under it, secured by a knot to prevent slipping. The end of the remaining length is affixed to the left breast pocket button. (refer to Handbook Picture p.23)

The proper way of wearing the lanyard is as follows:

The lanyard is to be curved at the edge of the left pocket, instead of hanging down near to the waist. At Brigade-level activities and functions, only white lanyards are to be worn at all times.






Belt

This should be worn fairly tightly around the waist. The buckle should be in the centre. (refer to Handbook Picture p.23)

Regulation Company Title Shoulder Flashes


These are sewn to the uniform shirt immediately below the regulation shoulder flash on each arm. (refer to Handbook Pictures p.24)

Badge Armlet


These will be worn on the right arm above the elbow with the colour badges pin onto it. (refer to Handbook Picture p.24)

Colour Badges


The badges should be worn in sequence as depicted in the diagram below:
*The three service badges should be arranged as such: 3rd Year (far left), 2nd Year (middle) and 1st (end).

Code of Conduct


  1. All members of The Boys' Brigade in Singapore should take pride in wearing their uniforms smartly.
  2. All uniforms should be kept clean and special care taken for the metal and leather parts.
  3. No parts of the uniform should be added on to or removed in public.
  4. All Boys in uniform are to salute to all BB Officers when at Brigade functions or activities. All male Officers are to be addressed as "Sir" and female Officers as "Madam" or "Ma'am" on parade. Off parade, Officers should be addressed as "Mr ", "Miss ", etc.
  5. Proper decorum should be adhered to when in uniform, as it affects the image of The Boys' Brigade.

Hair Regulation


As an approved CCA operating within schools, the BB needs to be compliant to the school rules pertaining to haircut. Officers are to lead by example, with neat haircut, adhering to the MOE guidelines for teachers in schools.

For Boys, the haircut should be neat, and should not cover the ears and eyebrows. Hair should be just above the collar at the back.
