The Singapore Scout Association ("SSA") was founded in 1910, two years after the Scout Movement was launched by Robert Baden-Powell in Great Britain.[1] This makes it the oldest established youth movement in Singapore.

As an organization within a multilingual country, the Association is called in Malay: Persatuan Pengakap Singapura-PPS, simplified Chinese: 新加坡童军总会; traditional Chinese: 新加坡童軍總會; pinyin: Xīnjiāpō Tóngjūn Zǒnghuì.
