This award recognizes star qualities in a high school or college student who competes in the sport of bowling. Star qualities include distinguished certified bowling performances on state, local, national, international, Team USA, or collegiate levels; as well as academic achievement and leadership. The award winner(s) receive a $2,500 Scholarship credited to their USBC SMART Account to assist in furthering their education.

All high school seniors and currently enrolled college students are encouraged to apply. This award is both academically and sport performance graded. The scores of our youth bowlers are rising as fast as the cost of a college education in today’s economy.  You can help towards the expenses of a “college bound” youth bowler from your association, who you feel is eligible for this annual award, simply by submitting your nomination by the deadline date.  Who knows? One or more youngsters, who could qualify, may be “right under your nose”!
