PAF Scholarship

The Oklahoma Former NFL Players Association has been given the responsibility by the Professional Athletes Foundation (PAF) to award two $2500 scholarships to Oklahoma High School Senior Athletes, one male and one female. This opportunity is open to any high school varsity athlete that attends a public or private high school in the state of Oklahoma. The PAF Scholarship rewards high school athletes for their non-athletic achievements and assists them in achieving their career goals. The PAF Scholarship is designed for any high school athlete who will attend a university, college or two year institution and will not receive any type of athletic scholarship.

All applications must be received by January 31, 2023. 

Please contact Jean Barrett via email to request the application packet at jbarrettinc@aol.com.
