The CEVA Athlete Success Fund helps student-athletes and families with club dues. Financial need and all other application requirements apply. Funding is competitive and not guaranteed. Awards typically range from $500 to $1,500 and are paid to clubs in early to mid January, not directly to families.

Deadline: Monday, November 30, 2026 at 3:00 PM Pacific time. Late or incomplete applications cannot be accepted. Applicants must hold a full-season junior player membership by the deadline. A tryout-only membership does not meet that requirement. Membership information.
