UWANTGAME has long recognized that participation in sports has enhanced leadership skills, academic aspirations, discipline, team work and interpersonal skills, self-confidence and has promoted the value of goal setting.

In recognition of how these vital skills contribute to successful and productive community citizens, the organization aims to support the collegiate and academic aspirations of graduating high-school students with financial hardships that will not continue their sports endeavors through collegiate athletic scholarships.

Beginning in 2016, UWANTGAME began awarding scholarships to deserving, high school seniors to continue their academic journey. Scholarships will be awarded based on a point system and the top applicants in each category will receive one UWANTGAME Leaders in Sports Scholarship.
