Wrightstown Full-Court Club 2016 Scholarship Application
General rules: Based on the number and quality of applicants, the Wrightstown Full-Court Club wishes to annually award a one-time college scholarship benefit to two seniors, one male and one female, in their senior year at Wrightstown High School. Applicants need to have played basketball for the WFCC and preference will be given to those who continued to play basketball through high school. Applicants will also need to submit a short essay that may be edited, printed, published without payment to the applicant.
Awards: Private donations fund these scholarships. In no way are the club’s general funds used for these awards, which are for use at a college, university, or trade school only. All scholarships will be payable to the educational institution of the recipient’s choice. A panel of adults who have a long-term experience with the WFCC will determine winners. The panel will consider the applicant’s contributions to basketball in the community, academic success, and the quality of the essay when determining the winners.
