Scholarships may be available for members of GTHA Travel and In-house teams. These scholarships are not designed for long-term or continued financial support. This is a one-time, partial scholarship award that is intended for members facing a temporary financial hardship, or a compelling current event that resulted in the need for scholarship consideration. All awards will be applied directly to the member’s GTHA dues and are not redeemable for cash. All award decisions are the discretion of the Fund’s Committee. Awards are given only when funds are available.
Process
The player must first be registered with GTHA and USA Hockey. The scholarship application form must be completed and include all the information requested on both forms. The application will be submitted to the Chairman of the Dallas Drake Fund. You will then be notified as soon as possible upon the final decision of the Fund’s Committee.
Criteria
1. At least one of the following forms of income verification will be required:
(Last 2 Pay Subs, W2 forms and Tax Returns.)
2. Number of years with GTHA
3. Number of players from family registered with GTHA
4. Volunteer Activity

6. Description of your current situation for the need of the scholarship.
Volunteer Activity
GTHA is a run by volunteers. As such, you as a scholarship applicant or recipient may be asked to perform some type of volunteer service to your association. We also have a fundraising program you can actively take part in to decrease your expenses throughout the season.
Confidentiality
All application information will be held in strict confidence by the Fund Committee.
