First to practice.
Last to leave.
Never the headline.
A scholarship for the kid who earns everything the hard way and never asks for credit. Nominating them takes 90 seconds, costs nothing, and always will.
You know this kid.
In the weight room before the coaches' cars are in the lot. Racking everyone else's plates after they've gone home. Running the scout team like it's the state final.
No recruiting profile. No highlight tape going viral. No D1 call coming.
The five-stars have scouts watching them. This scholarship is for everyone they don't see.
Every nomination is a shot at both.
The Scholarship
Four scholarships awarded every academic year, paid toward the winner's education. Funded by team fundraisers run by programs across the country, not by entry fees, because there are none.
The Spotlight
Most awards have one winner. This one has many. Standout nominees earn full media coverage: a feature story and an athlete page on spectatorsport.com, pushed across our social channels. Free of charge, all season long.
How it works
90 seconds. Free. No strings.
Tell us who they are and why they deserve it. No purchase, no account, no commitment from you or your program. Nominating is free and ungated, permanently.
A real committee, not an algorithm.
Every nomination is read by our three-person selection committee at Spectator Sport USA: Trey, Dave, and Kristy. Work ethic is the criteria. Star ratings are not.
Four scholarships a year. Spotlights all year.
Four scholarships are awarded every academic year. Standout nominees who don’t win still earn full media features throughout the season.
$200 from every fundraiser.
When a team runs a custom blanket fundraiser with Spectator Sport, the program keeps its profit, and $200 from every fundraiser goes straight into the First In, Last Out pool.
Fund your program and fund the kid who deserves it. Same fundraiser, one action.
