2022 AMBA MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIPS

AMBA is proud to offer two $500 Scholarships, awarded to two individuals who have contributed to the growth of AMBA in the community. 

The Sean Smith Memorial Scholarship is dedicated to Sean’s love of sports, joy of playing, his team spirit and sportsmanship. It is awarded to a current or past AMBA player.

 The Colin McKenna Memorial Scholarship commemorates Colin’s generous spirit and his love of, and dedication to basketball within our community. It is awarded to a current or past AMBA volunteer, coach, or referee.
