Scholarship Program

Investing in Athletes Today. Empowering Leaders Tomorrow.

The Miami Hype Legacy Scholarship Program was created to support athletes throughout their volleyball journey—from club participation to college success.

Through the generosity of sponsors, donors, alumni, and community partners, scholarship funding is awarded to deserving athletes who demonstrate commitment, character, leadership, and a passion for growth both on and off the court.

The program consists of two scholarship pathways designed to create opportunities at every stage of an athlete’s development.
