New Advanced Sports Medals
First, Idrettshelt [ee-dretts-hellt] – the sports hero pin – is the 5th level within any sports medal category.
Members must have completed the bronze, silver, gold and enamel pins in a sport category prior to starting on the Idrettshelt.

Earn double the point or mileage value of the enamel level to qualify for an Idrettshelt pin. Tracking cards for this medal may be requested from your lodge Sports Director. Record your mileage or minutes and return the card to your sports director to receive your pin.
