Florida Region Scholarship Program
The scholarship program started in 2007 as a way to recognize some of our outstanding members and support the continuing education of these young athletes through their upcoming college careers. In 2007, we awarded scholarships to 4 high school seniors and thanks to our generous sponsors and partners, we have been able to grow the scholarship program and have awarded over $1,000,000 to 334 students!
In 2025, the Region and our sponsors awarded $140,000 to high school seniors across the Florida Region!
