Florida Chapter Next Level Scholarships Offered for 4th Year

Florida High School Wrestling has reached the Next Level. Florida scholarship athletes are wrestling for Iowa, Oklahoma State, Penn, Keiser, Southeastern, Liberty, Life, and more. College is expensive and we are helping.

The Florida Chapter is pairing with the South and Central Florida, Law Offices of Kleinman & Lessmann, to sponsor a $1000 'Boys Next Level Scholarshipto be awarded to one qualified Florida high school senior who will wrestle in college. 2023 will be the 4th year for this program. Our chapter is also proud to enter into a 3rd year of partnership with Jenmarco to offer the same opportunity for senior girls advancing to the next level. The application process has begun and is available on our website.  Under the guidance of Development Director Jeff Malavsky sponsors have agreed to continue to support the program for 5 years. We would like to acknowledge the generosity of Pat Fairfax () whose contribution to the Next Level Scholarship maintains it's sustainability for the coming years.

Our Mission: To honor the sport of wrestling by preserving its history, recognizing extraordinary individual achievements, and inspiring future generations
