Following the Troop section he then moved to the Venture Unit where he earned his Venture Badge, Venture Award and Life Saving Course with RLSS. Following an extraordinary experience in the Venture Unit he joined the Rover Crew which he still forms part of today. A day to remember in the Rover Crew was when the Mosta Rover Crew won the Best Crew of the Year Award at the National Rover Camp in 2006.
