LIJSL is pleased to announce over 25 scholarship recipients for 2023. The recipients were recognized in-person at the Scholarship Breakfast on Sunday, July 23.
Each year, LIJSL awards scholarships to players in their senior year of high school that have best exemplified the character the League was founded upon in 1966. This year,27 outstanding student-athletes were presented their scholarships in the presence of their families and the generous program donors at the Long Island/Huntington Hilton.
LIJSL would like to congratulate all of this year’s recipients! The League wishes the best of luck to all our recipients in their future endeavors, and trust that they will continue to demonstrate the character that has been built through soccer.
