Application Process
Asphalt Green is now accepting SFF scholarship applications for current AGUA swimmers for the 2013-2014 season. All applications must be completed by June 14th 2013. This scholarship is awarded annually to dedicated, talented swimmers on the AGUA Team who have financial need.
The scholarship program began after two Asphalt Green Masters swimmers, Andrew Fisher and Doug Irgang, tragically lost their lives on September 11, 2001. The program was created by family, friends, teammates and Asphalt Green to honor Andrew and Doug's spirit and overall commitment to excellence.
