The Phyllis Blatz
Promising Professional
Scholarship
The Phyllis Blatz Promising Professional
Scholarship is offered to females entering teaching
or in their first year of teaching and coaching girls or
women’s sports. While opportunities for girls
and women to compete have increased because of Title IX,

are their coaches. This scholarship is intended to
provide professional development in support of women going
into coaching.
