A scholarship for college for $250 will be awarded to a two players during the tournament. One 12U and one 14U
How is the Scholarship Recipient Decided?
The form of a blind draw will decide the recipient of each scholarship.
ALL teams in the weekend tournament, and All players PARTICIPATING in the tournament will be included in the draw.
The scholarship will NOT be awarded based on order of finish of a team or an individual player’s athletic ability.
Details of when the drawing will be held shall be posted on or near the bracket board so everyone will know when the drawings
will be held during the tournament.
What happens after the Draw? The tournament director will have the NSA Scholarship Recipient Form filled out by the
parents or guardian of the player. The director will submit the correct information with the scholarship funds to the NSA
National Office. The NSA National Office then submits a Confirmation Certificate, including the Sponsors Names, to the winner
of the scholarship and holds the funds in their Scholarship Fund until the recipient is ready to attend college.
Who can participate in this tournament? Any team currently registered with NSA may participate.
What if the player does NOT play ball in college?
It does NOT matter if the player participates in college level softball. The scholarship is still theirs to use.
Can a player receive more than one scholarship?
Yes, if the recipient is lucky enough to be drawn more than one time over the years.
Is there a stipulation on the type of college the scholarship will be applied?
The scholarship funds will be paid directly to the recipient, in the recipient’s name, after proof of enrollment is received by the
NSA National Office. Redeemable at such time the recipient enters an accredited two-year or four year, junior college,
college or university.
