The purpose of the CCFC Youth scholarship is to recognize and honor members of the CCFC Youth who have excelled in area high school soccer and plan to attend college. Winner(s) will be chosen on the basis of academic achievement, service to school and community, and leadership in interscholastic and competitive league sports.
The Kenny Potts Memorial Scholarship was established in 1998. Kenny Potts was a member of the '75 PSA Stars and played for Andrews High School. Unfortunately, a car accident took Kenny’s life in his early 20’s. It was a great loss for this soccer community and particularly to his teammates and extended soccer family!
A memorial was set up in memory of Kenny by the parents of the ’75 Stars team.
This scholarship continues to touch the lives of young women and men in our community who share the same passion for the game that Kenny so much loved.
Danny and Gail Potts use the same criteria and application as above for the purpose of awarding the Kenny Potts Memorial Scholarship.
May Kenny’s memory live on!
