The Bell Warriors Jim Wagdin Scholarship Program offers two $1,000 scholarships to ex-Warriors who are pursuing post secondary education. Participation in a post secondary football program is not a pre-requisite. There are however, three selection criteria – Academics, Warrior Experience, and Community Involvement. Applications must be submitted by August 1 and must include an original letter describing both the applicant’s experiences with the Warriors as well as his/her volunteer involvement with the community, a transcript of the applicant’s previous year’s marks, a notice of acceptance from the selected university/college (for first year students) OR a note from the school indicating the applicant’s return for a succeeding year, as well as any letters of reference.
Two phenomenal Warrior alumni were named our2014 Bell Warriors Jim Wagdin Scholarship winners last year – Charlie Keenan & Mitchell Henselwood. Both young man have gone on to play with the Queens Gaels and both are tremendous role models for our young players and representatives for our Warrior program!
An independent committee, as chosen by the Club executive, makes the selections. Please send application details to president@bellwarriors.ca.
