The Youth Basketball Scholarship Fund strives for excellence and we expect the same from our participants. We expect those in need of financial assistance to exhibit traits of excellence off the court and in the classroom. Recipients of scholarships must exhibit these qualities in order to qualify for assistance. Our goal is to distribute funds two times per year.
