Hood Milk Sportsmanship Scholarship

The Hood® Milk Sportsmanship Scholarship Program awards 18 New England high school student athletes with a $5,000 scholarship toward furthering their education at a two- or four- year accredited college or university.

For more than 160 years, Hood® Milk has been at the heart of families and communities across New England. Hood is proud to be able to give 18 student athletes an opportunity to win a $5,000 college scholarship.

To be eligible, high school seniors must have displayed a high degree of sportsmanship while participating in a varsity high school sport. These students also must have earned a cumulative 3.0 GPA or higher and performed volunteer work in the community.

Students will be asked to write an essay explaining how they display sportsmanship and integrity on and off the field.

Each student who meets the standards in the official rules and completes the essay will be featured on an online voting site. The ten students from each New England state who receive the most votes will be interviewed by a select panel of judges.

The panel of judges will then select three students from each of the six New England states (Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont) as the scholarship winners. Winners will be honored at a banquet and entered into the Hood Sportsmanship Scholarship Hall of Fame.

Applicants must enter by 3 p.m. EST on March 6, 2017. Voting begins at 9 a.m. EDT on March 27, 2017, and ends at 3 p.m. EDT on April 10, 2017.
