Thank you for your interest in becoming a part of the Inderkum Jr. Tigers Football and Cheer Family. The Jr. Tigers Football and Cheer Program takes pride in giving back to our community. Since its inception, the Jr. Tigers program has awarded scholarships to selected participants. Academic, athletic, or financial scholarship opportunities are awarded by the IJT Board. Although it is IJT’s desire to grant every applicant a scholarship, it is not possible. Therefore, full scholarships, as well as partial scholarships, will be award based upon applications, need, merit, and availability of funds.
With Scholarship Entries, The Inderkum Jr. Tigers Board of Directors has the authority to grant scholarships to applicants applying for football and cheer. The total will vary based upon football and cheer participation. This may vary per season based upon budget and funds available per season. Cheer applicants will be awarded scholarships up to a maximum amount of $300.00 with remaining balance being covered by cheer applicant. The award of these scholarships is at the discretion of the Board of Directors.
The following factors will be used to determine scholarship awards:
Player/Cheerleader’s number of years with the Inderkum Jr. Tigers, current and past conduct, and character (parent and child), parent/guardian’s financial status, academic performance (academic scholarship), number of siblings in the organization, parent/guardian past and present ability to meet the required parent volunteer hours and any other factors that the Board determines to be relevant in making their decision.
Our Policy: It is the policy of The Inderkum Jr. Tigers Football and Cheer program to provide equal opportunities to all applicants without regard or discrimination of race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual preference, age, or disability. All scholarship applications will be kept confidential and awarded parents, players, and cheerleaders will NOT be named or publicized by the Inderkum Jr. Tigers. Thank you for completing this application form and for your interest in the Inderkum Jr. Tigers Football and Cheer Program
