3rd Enfield Company history
The President's Badge
The President's Badge was introduced in 1968 to go with a new Award scheme. It is the second highest Award in The Boys' Brigade, with members having to be at least 15 years of age to gain it. Members who do gain it can then begin work on the Queen's Badge.
The requirements for the Award have changed slightly over time, but generally involve a variety of skills based activities, physical recreation, leadership courses and Christian faith development. Below are the members of the 3rd Enfield to gain this Award.

The Queen's Badge is the highest Award in The Boys' Brigade. Currently it can be gained by boys of 16 years old and over. It involves completing various leadership courses, providing service to the Company/Church and community, as well as other activities.
Since the inception of the King's/Queen's Badge, twenty members of the 3rd Enfield have gained the Award.
