The Sports Backers/RTD ALL-Stars received 63 nominations from 26 schools and ultimately selected 21 students to be a part of the 2024-2025 ALL-Stars program. Each of the selected students has started on their ALL-Star journey, where they will be learning how to contribute to active living in our community, volunteering with fitness and sports organizations, receiving mentorship from local leaders, completing a capstone project that will benefit our community, and ultimately earning a minimum $2500 scholarship.
See below for a list of the 2024-2025 Cohort of ALL-Star Scholar-Athletes. They kicked off their journey at the program orientation a few weeks ago and will continue learning, serving, and leading until we celebrate their accomplishments, and award the scholarships, in May of 2025. We will award $78,000 in scholarship funds at this year’s Awards Show.
Congratulations to 2024 – 2025 ALL-Star Scholar-Athletes
