 New Incentive Scholarship Program for Youth Riders
Beginning January 1 of 2010, NSBA will take a leadership role in rewarding youth for their participation in NSBA programs. Youth riders will be able to earn scholarship money while riding Licensed horses in dual-approved and other designated youth classes that can be applied to their future educational experiences (College, internships, trade schools, etc.) This program is in addition to the traditional scholarship program already offered by NSBA.
Youth will apply to the program by paying a onetime fee of $25.00 and completing an application form. They will need an NSBA membership and ride a licensed horse in order to earn scholarship money.
Each NSBA point earned in a youth class will earn a money value. Novice Youth classes and points earned by youth in Open classes are not included. The youth will receive an annual print out of earnings. They will complete a form and submit it to NSBA to request their payout when they age out of the youth program (January 1 of the year after youth turns 18). Requests for payout must be made by December 31 of the year the youth becomes eligible for the payout. Any earnings that are eligible for payout and remain unclaimed will be moved to the NSBA Scholarship fund annually.
NSBA will utilize the sanction fees paid by the youth to create the “pot”. Added to this will be the 10% of the trainer sale money which is contributed to scholarships annually.
NSBA YOUTH SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
Scholarship Applications are due February 1, 2010.
