The Crushers Scholarship program is a fundraising opportunity for local high schools. By selling Crusher ticket vouchers on consignment, schools are able to earn money towards a scholarship for one or more of their students. The Crushers Scholarship programs is a great way to organize a night out at the ballpark for students, faculty, family and friends while at the same time raising money to benefit your schools students.

How it Works

• Local high schools and their students will be provided the opportunity to sell tickets vouchers to a pre-determined Lake Erie Crushers game (Saturday through Thursday).
• The team will award scholarships based on the number of tickets sold.
• The process is easy. Each seller will receive a tracking sheet to collect ticket orders. All orders must be returned to the team by May 1. The Crushers will deliver the ticket vouchers to the school by June 1 for the sellers to deliver.
• All scholarship winners will throw out a first pitch and be recognized in front of the Crushers fans prior to the game.

Scholarship Eligibility

• Student must be a high school senior.
• Senior must have been accepted to a College or University.
