Scholarship Information

OMGBA Scholarships Are Limited

OMGBA’s mission is to provide the best basketball experience, on and off the court, for all of our athletes & families. We understand that sometimes families experience financial hardship, and OMGBA strives to help in those times of need. Upon submission of the application and required documentation, scholarships are available for athletes in 3rd through 12th grade.

Scholarships are NOT available for our Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd grade programs.

Scholarship Amount Available:
OMGBA offers a maximum scholarship of up to 50% off house program fees and 50% off travel program fees.  

To be considered for a 50% scholarship for the OMGBA season, please follow this process:
**Reminder: Do NOT register until you are approved & receive the scholarship code to use when registering. Refunds will not be given for scholarships.**

1) You complete the online Scholarship Application Survey prior to the scholarship request deadline for your program. Click Here For Form

2) You email a copy of your student's District 279 free and reduced lunch letter for the CURRENT year to scholarship@omgba.net. We cannot grant scholarships based upon last year's free/reduced letter; please send this year's letter.

3) Your submission will be reviewed by a member of the OMGBA Executive Committee.

4) If a scholarship is approved, you will be sent a unique discount code to enter into the system when you register your player online at OMGBA.net. This code will apply your discount during registration process.

Note:

  • The scholarship player will need to be registered (with the scholarship discount code applied and the remaining balance paid) before registration for your program closes.
  • IF YOU ARE PURSUING A SCHOLARSHIP, DO NOT REGISTER PRIOR TO RECEIVING YOUR DISCOUNT CODE.  YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE A REFUND.
  • As a requirement for your receiving a scholarship, OMGBA reserves the right to require scholarship families to volunteer at one of the OMGBA hosted tournaments.
