Philadelphia Youth Basketball (PYB) is committed to ensuring that all young people have access to our programs, regardless of their families’ ability to pay. We offer equitable scholarship opportunities designed to support youth and families from diverse backgrounds, ensuring that all eligible participants have fair and meaningful access to our programs.
PYB is pleased to provide need-based scholarships on a sliding scale for our fee-based programs. Scholarship levels are determined based on total household income.
If approved, a scholarship award will apply to the entire household for all eligible fee-based programs in which enrolled youth participate during the program year. Families must submit a new scholarship application each year to be considered for continued support.
Scholarships are valid for programs running from June 2026 through May 2027 and do not automatically renew year to year. New documentation must be submitted for the following year to apply for a future scholarship.
To be considered, please complete all sections of the application and submit all necessary documentation. Incomplete applications may delay the review process.
