SYBSA Alumni Scholarship Application
SYBSA is excited to provide a scholarship for baseball and softball alumni. This scholarship is for current Sharon residents that are planning to continue their education at a vocational school, two-year college, four-year college, or university or have enlisted in a branch of the US Armed Forces.
The awarded amount and number of scholarships may vary year to year based on applications received.
Applicant Requirements:
• Town of Sharon resident that is a graduating senior from any high school
• Has played at least one (1) season (Spring, Summer, or Fall) over a minimum of four (4) different calendar years
• Submit a brief essay (300-500 words) that relates to an activity, lesson or memory you recall from your time spent with SYBSA and how this experience has helped you prepare for the future
• Applications must be submitted online by May 1st
Winners will be selected based upon a blind reading of the essays submitted, by the SYBSA Scholarship Committee. Winners will be notified in advance and presentations will be made during SYBSA's Championship Sunday.
This is not an award presented to the most accomplished graduating student-athlete or prolific student; nor is it being presented to the applicant who may have the greatest financial need. After leaving SYBSA, applicants are not required to participate in baseball or softball. It is simply a gift to selected SYBSA alumni, who have met the qualifications presented by the league.
