2017 BOB ADAMS FOUNDATION SCHOLARSHIPS

PLEASE PRINT OR TYPE APPLICATION

The Bob Adams Foundation’s mandate of promoting fulfillment of individual potential through the pursuit of excellence in Track & Field Athletics in Saskatchewan is achieved in part by offering scholarships (currently two scholarships of $750) to students graduating from high school and pursuing post-secondary education while maintaining a training and competitive program in track & field and cross-country in Saskatchewan. Are you interested? Do you know someone who might be?

You are eligible to apply for the 2017 scholarship if you are:

  • A Saskatchewan student graduating from high school by June 2017
  • Eligible to compete in SHSAA sports in the 2016-2017 school year
  • Enrolled in a Saskatchewan post-secondary education program at the first opportunity after completing high school.
  • Planning to participate in organized Athletics Programs during the 2017-2018 season.

What counts toward the Scholarship?

You might plan to study some place other than a university, but the Foundation will use the same five subjects that would be used for admission to the University of Saskatchewan. The average of these five subjects will count 40%. Your best single Athletics (track, field, cross-country, road race – indoor or outdoor) performances will count 60%. The performances must have been achieved between September 1, 2016 and July 31, 2017. You may use either high school achievements or performances achieved in competitions sanctioned by one of the provincial Athletics Associations. These must be verifiable through appearing in official results of the particular competition. In case of sprint performances, only fully automatic timing is acceptable.
