Unincorporated Associations, Scout, Troops, Youth sports leagues, etc. are excluded from the beneficial ownership requirement - correct?

Yes. From the preamble to the 2016 final rule:

FinCEN also notes that as a general matter, small local community organizations, such as Scout Troops and youth sports leagues, are unincorporated associations rather than legal entities and therefore not subject to the beneficial ownership requirement.
