Before applying online, you should ensure your athlete meets all of our eligibility criteria. This includes playing for a partner club. You can find a list of the clubs we have partnered with here.
You should apply for a scholarship as soon as your athlete has earned a spot on a competitive team. This could be through tryouts or registration. An application must be submitted to Chance Sports for each athlete you would like to apply for. You may apply for more than one athlete in your family. We do not guarantee any members of your family will receive a scholarship. Follow the link at the bottom of this page to apply.
Once you have applied, you will receive an automated “Thank You” email. If you have questions, you may reply to this email.
If your athlete is awarded a scholarship, you will hear from us via email and text message with next step on how to access your scholarship funds.
If your athlete is not awarded a scholarship, you will hear from us only via email.
We receive thousands of applications each year and review every single one. There are numerous factors involved when awarding an athlete a scholarship. We take over a dozen components into consideration when making our decisions. Here are some examples of the determinants that play a role in selecting athletes:
Although we wish we were able to award all athletes, we are a small non-profit trying our best to make a difference where we can.
If your athlete is awarded a scholarship, you will be notified via email and text message during the last 1-2 days of the month you applied in, for the most part.

If you applied on July 29, 2025, you may not hear from us until August 31, 2025 as we want to ensure we take the time to review every application before making any decisions.
