Youth Sports Coalition
Annual Scholarship Program
The Roseville Youth Sports Coalition (YSC) is a unique partnership between local independent youth sports providers and the City of Roseville. The youth sports partners provide athletic activities, opportunities and competition for participants; the City provides game and practice fields for the partners.
Every year each YSC member league will select an athlete, through their own league scholarship process, that is/has been a participant in their organization, to receive a $500 YSC scholarship. The seven scholarship recipients will be submitted to the YSC for review and award approval.
The YSC will then award an additional $1000 scholarship to one of the seven athletes based on merit.
