The International Bowling Media Association (IBMA) may annually award scholarships to students attending college or graduating high school seniors planning on attending college. The scholarship is named in memory of IBMA, USBC and PBA Halls of Fame journalist Chuck Pezzano. To be eligible, applicants must be interested in writing about bowling either as a volunteer, part- or full-time media. They must participate in the sport of bowling, although bowling skills are not a requisite. Applicants must not have exceeded their 25th birthday during the calendar year of the award. The first step to apply is to fill out the online pre-application. Once this is received and the information the applicant has provided meets the application qualifications, they will receive a full application to fill out and submit. The full application must be accompanied by at least one reference letter and a short essay. Finalists will be asked to provide a copy of their school transcripts.
