SJVOA Officials Association Memorial Scholarship
The SJVOA Officials Memorial Scholarship was established to honor local officials: Mr.Katen, Mr. Penberthy, Mr. Wilson, Mr. Lemon and Mr. Medina. The scholarship is looking to recognize senior student-athletes who want to continue their education and to recognize student-athletes, for being just that, a student and an athlete. We fully realize that many student-athletes will never play another minute of team sports once this senior season is over. However, almost every student-athlete wants to have an opportunity to improve themselves and their future. We want to recognize them for their academic persistence, their athletic dedication, and their community involvement by awarding them this scholarship. We are looking for that student-athlete who fits this role. Someone who is a motivational player. Someone who is a leader. Someone who gives their team that spark when they need it. Yet, is someone who gives back to their school and community. These descriptions characterize our friends and fellow officials.
Deadlines - must be postmarked by April 5, 2019.
