MIKE ROWEKAMP SCHOLARSHIP

A generous financial donation from the Rowekamp family in honor of Mike Rowekamp, has allowed BFA to continue offering financial assistance to qualifying players since 2021. Mike was instrumental in starting the first 10U fastpitch league in Minnesota and coached in Bloomington for 25 years. He not only taught his players the fundamentals of playing ball, but also that hard work has reward, that winning is fun but it's important to win graciously, and that something is learned from losing as well.

BFA seeks to provide recreation programs for traveling fastpitch sports participants. This policy establishes a program which may provide financial assistance in the form of need-based assistance equal to up to 50% of the player registration fees.

If you would like to apply for financial assistance, you must complete the Financial Assistance Application and then contact the BFA Treasurer prior to registration completion.

The basic uniform package is included with registration:

• 1 - Sleeveless uniform top
