Fields of Learning Scholarship
Scholarship Sponsored by Fields of Learning
Purpose
Encouraging high school students in Ohio and beyond to reflect on and write about what they learned from their high school football experiences — and providing as many of those students as possible with financial support for further education.
Who may enter
Current high school students from Ohio and other states are invited to participate.
About the program
Since 2004 we have been awarding scholarships for the best essays about lessons learned through high school football. The program is designed to recognize personal growth and learning and to help winners with funds for continuing their education.
An invitation to participate
Have a meaningful or memorable story tied to your high school football experience? We want to read it — and we’ve been honoring outstanding essays for years. Why not give it a try?
2026 competition timeline
The 2026 Fields of Learning Scholarship opens at the conclusion of the 2025 football season (at the end of 2025). All entries must be received by March 31, 2026.
