Three Rivers Soccer Club (3RSC) will be awarding five scholarships worth $1,000 each to current players who are set to graduate in 2023.  The funding for these scholarships was generously donated by participants at the July 2022 Tim Atencio Scholarship Fundraiser.  

Tim Atencio coached youth soccer in our area for almost 40 years, including over 20 years for our club, and was instrumental in building the culture, class, competitiveness, and fun our club currently represents.  Tim passed away in February 2021.  We are eternally thankful for his contribution to the sport and are excited to continue his legacy with these scholarships.

To apply for consideration of the 3RSC Tim Atencio Scholarships, the student athlete must be:

• A current player for 3RSC
• Graduating in 2023
• Plans on attending college next year (player does not need to be playing college soccer to qualify)
