BTL Athletes Scholarship
BTL Industries is all about strengthening and empowering individuals based on the values of teamwork, trust, and building others up.
Student-athletes face unique challenges as they pursue their education, balancing the responsibilities of homework and studying with practices, training, and games for their sport. High tuition is just one more source of stress that many student-athletes have to deal with.
BTL has collaborated with professional basketball player Andre Drummond to ease the burden of tuition for five student-athletes who are graduating high school or attending college.
Any low-income high school junior or senior who’s a varsity athlete or any current undergraduate students who are athletes on a college team may apply for this scholarship. Students who only play intramural or club sports are not eligible.
To apply, please submit a short 2-5 minute video sharing your personal background, your aspirations, and how this scholarship would help you on your journey. Please also share what confidence in your sport means to you and any relevant clips of you playing your sport.
