NHSRA

ATHLETE OF THE MONTH

 

The Professional's Choice Student Athlete of the Month program began in 1999.  This NHSRA program rewards one girl and one boy each month with a Professional's Choice Air Ride Saddle Pad and qualifies each monthly winner for two $1000 scholarships (one boys and one girls) to be awarded at the end of the rodeo season.  To be eligible for this honor, students must submit an application to the NHSRA national office in Denver.   As part of the application procedure, applicants must answer questions regarding extracurricular activities, volunteerism, goals, and submit a 150-word essay, as well as a letter of recommendation.  Each month winners are featured in the NHSRA Times.  Scholarship winners are announced at the National High School Finals Rodeo each year. 

 

Past Montana members honored include Tammy Williams (Dillon) - March 2003; Holly Matz (Missoula) - March 2004, January 2005, and June 2007; and Sarah Guenzler (Ronan) - February 2005.

 

To apply, download the 2007 - 2008 Athlete of the Year application.  To be considered, the National Office in Denver must receive the completed forms and supporting materials by May 1^st.  We'd love to see our Montana members in an upcoming issue of the NHSRA Times!
