More Than A Check – Ongoing Mentorship From Major League Baseball Umpires and Their Families
UMPS CARE continues to work with our scholarship recipients to help ensure lifelong success. Each recipient is paired with an MLB umpire and his family who mentor these students through their college years. Scholarship winners receive phone calls, care packages and on-field experiences at Big League ballparks to meet umpires and learn more about hard work, sacrifice and giving back.
Scholarship Eligibility Requirements:
Application Requirements:
- Teacher/ Administrator: One letter should represent a teacher or administrator who is familiar with the student’s work and accomplishments.
- Personal Reference: The second letter should come from a significant person in the child’s life (i.e. social worker, coach, mentor, etc.).

Requirements to Maintain Scholarship:
If you are selected as the scholarship recipient, you may be awarded a $5,000 grant every semester (for a 4 year institution) if you meet the maintenance standards. Our standards align with Federal Grant standards.
