Scholarships
WLUSC firmly believes that each child who wishes to play soccer should be entitled to do so regardless of skill, gender, or financial circumstances. Our club will not deny any child a chance to play soccer due to a financial hardship.
Scholarship Program
To aid parents who may need assistance with registration fees, WLUSC has a scholarship program. We fund this scholarship through a percentage (10%) of our Club's registration fees and a percentage (10%) of our Club's tournament NET profits.
Scholarship Eligibility Requirements
Those seeking a scholarship must explain the nature of the hardship and provide documentation supporting the request.
The following information must be provided to WLUSC Board of Directors:
Proof of annual household income: Copy of PAGE ONE from last year's Federal 1040 tax form , and/or an eligibility letter stating benefits from the Family Independence Program, Social Security, a copy of the school district’s free or reduced lunch verification form, or other program.
A completed submitted online registration at WLUSC containing all of the player's information (medical, address, etc)
A signed contract by the parent(s) assuming financial responsibility for the scholarship and/or remaining balance due if player terminates his/her membership in the Club due to any non-medical reason.
