As we have since 2019, the Grove City Athletics Club is offering $250 each for the 2021 Grove City Athletics Club Boys and Girls Scholarships.  More information here:

In accordance with NCAA regulations, no check is made out to the student-athlete.  We write the check out to the higher education institution and the monies are mailed to the institution and then are directed to be deposited into the student's school account.
