APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS: In order for the Committee to properly evaluate qualifications for assistance, please submit any supporting documentation you have along with this form. This application will need to be completed in its entirety or it will not be accepted.
Please submit at least one of the following documents with your application to verify income or financial eligibility. Providing additional supporting documentation, if available, may help expedite the review process.
Examples of acceptable documentation include, but are not limited to:
Income tax return forms with all W-2s
Payroll check stubs from the last three (3) months
Proof of enrollment in a school meals program
Documentation showing you receive a scholarship through your club or organization
In addition, all ODP Scholarship players are required to complete volunteer service hours at IYSA events as a condition of receiving financial assistance. Players receiving a partial scholarship must complete a minimum of 10 volunteer hours, while players receiving a full scholarship must complete a minimum of 20 volunteer hours. Families should be prepared to support and facilitate this commitment.
To remain eligible for participation in ODP Championship events and ODP Interregional Championship events, scholarship recipients must complete at least 50% of their required volunteer hours prior to attending the event. Players who have not completed the required hours will not be permitted to participate unless alternative arrangements have been approved in advance by the Program Administrator.
Completion of the required volunteer hours is mandatory for scholarship recipients and helps ensure that scholarship funds are distributed fairly while supporting the success of IYSA programs and events.
