Baseball Scholarship

BNBA is pleased to announce that a baseball scholarship program has been created to encourage and allow access to youth baseball for participants who otherwise may not have the financial means or opportunity to participate. Program funds are available to assist families who cannot afford the fees associated with participation in the BNBA youth baseball program.

BNBA is committed to keeping registration fees as low as possible, and is based on the cost of operating the organization as a whole. This is where the scholarship program can help by offsetting the costs of registration fees for those families who are experiencing hardships due to lower income, loss of income, etc.... The number and amount of registration fee scholarships may be limited based on the amount of scholarships applied for. Families may apply for a 30% or a 75% reduction in fees through the scholarship
fund. 100% scholarships will no longer be available.

The Committee will consider many factors when evaluating eligibility for financial assistance through the program. These circumstances may include, but are not limited to, a family hardship or burden, illness, loss of compensation or other changes in financial position.

Financial assistance applications are available. Application must be filled out by a parent or guardian and will be held in strict confidence between parent/guardian and the Scholarship Committee.
The Committee consist of three members, the BNBA Director, and the Son and Daughter of whom the
Scholarship Fund is named for, Mike Brown.

Everyone applying for a scholarship will need to provide documentation that supports their need for assistance. Please forward application and supporting documents via email or bring them into the BNBA office located at O'Neil park. Below is the link to the application.
