Financial Scholarship Application                

 

 

General Information

 

It is the goal of the Mandan Hockey Club (MHC) to provide kids with the opportunity to play hockey, regardless of their family’s ability to pay.  The intent is to keep kids playing the game of hockey rather than be forced out by financial hardship.  Because MHC recognizes the many levels of need, the Board of Directors or its designated Scholarship Committee shall award financial scholarships based on the amount of funds available and the demonstrated financial need of the applicant.

 

MHC realizes that asking for assistance may be difficult for some members. We want to assure you that all information related to the application and disbursements will be kept in the strictest of confidence within the MHC Scholarship Committee.

 

Factors for approval will include but are not limited to:

 

1.    Demonstrated financial need.

2.   Availability of funds.

3.   Completed scholarship application (incomplete forms will not be considered).

4.   Volunteer commitment and mandatory participation in any fund raising activities.

5.   Player willingness to conduct one’s self in an exemplary manner consistent with the ideals, rules and standards of the Mandan Hockey Club and USA Hockey.
