The Earl F. Smith Athletic Scholarship, which is administered by Sport PEI, has a value of $1,000.00 and is awarded yearly, to an outstanding Prince Edward Island high school student athlete.
Each school can nominate one student for consideration, e.g. male or female athlete of year.  Once a school has decided on who will be nominated (not necessary to nominate each year), we request that the school submit a one page typed written letter outlining why this individual is deserving of the award. Criteria in support of the nomination should include the following:

• Summary of the nominee’s athletic accomplishments including those outside of the school program
• Apparent need, perhaps have not won any other school scholarship or bursary and may have limited financial resources available for secondary education or other interest
• Describe other characteristics and qualities which may further qualify the individual for the award

Sport PEI will appoint a selection committee to review the applications and to determine the award recipient.
Deadline for application is the second Monday in June of each year. For more information, please contact Sport PEI at [email protected] or at 902-368-4110.
