The purpose of this grant is to offer financial support to members of the South Dakota High School Coaches Association (SDHSCA) who wish to attend national coaching or athletic clinics, conferences, or seminars. One grant will be awarded to a female applicant, and one will be awarded to a gymnastics coach. The remaining grants may be awarded to head coaches, assistant coaches, or athletic directors. If no female or gymnastics coach applies, those grants may be reassigned to other eligible applicants.
Grants may be awarded regardless of whether the individual is receiving additional financial assistance. Applicants must be current members of the SDHSCA, and individuals are eligible to receive this grant only once every five years.
