Scholarships

NWAHA has been helping individuals financially on an as needed basis for the last few years. Recently, due to the tremendous generosity of many individuals, a financial assistance fund named the Robyn Parsons Fund was established to formally assist children who would enjoy playing the game of hockey, but who may have financial constraints or family priorities, that limit their ability to participate. This fund continues to grow through generous individual contributions, through donations made from the NWAHA registration process and individual team’s fund raising campaigns. Please know donations are always welcome and 100% tax deductible, send donations to:

NWAHA

Scholarship Application:

All applications will be held in the strictest of confidence. Your personal information will be reviewed and discussed by a comitte made up of NWAHA Board Members and the NWAHA Board Treasurer. These individuals will have the responsibility to review, prioritize need, and award funds, as they deem appropriate. If you have already completed registration, you can still complete and mail these forms in for consideration. Should you be eligible for scholarship, you will receive a reimbursement check in the mail.

Scholarship Acceptance Expectations:

Should your request for financial assistance be accepted, the NWAHA Board expects 100% participation of your player(s) at all practices and games. In the event of games that are played outside Springdale, it is your responsibility to request help from your Team Manager or other team parents in securing transportation for your player(s) to these locations if you are unable to transport your own child. Should an unusual number of missed practices or games be noticed, you will lose future consideration for financial assistance.

You will also be expected to participate as a team parent on the team. You need to be available and attend team meetings and contribute volunteer hours to any team events, i.e., home tournament, team car wash, etc.
