Burke AC and Fairfax County provide registration fee scholarships and/or a Fairfax County provided equipment voucher to help children participate in county sports programs.  If you qualify for the school lunch program or other public assistance, you may qualify for the Fairfax County Sports Scholarship program.  To take advantage of the scholarship program you must follow these steps:

First you must register your child as a scholarship player on the registration page.   Scholarship registration will be accepted until the end of on-time registration.  There will be no access to scholarship registration during late registration.   August and September registrations are credit card only.  We do not accept mail in check or scholarship registrations during late registration .

Second you must submit a completed and signed  Fairfax County Youth Sports Scholarship Program Application (pdf document) to Burke AC, at PO Box 11311 Burke VA 22009 within 10 days of registration.  This signed form will act as your payment of  the registration fee.  Once the signed form is received by Burke AC, we will mark your child’s registration paid and your child can then be placed on a team. Your child will not be placed on a team until this completed and signed form is received.  

Third - all applications must be submitted to Burke AC  within 10 days of the end of regular registration.  (For example,  if regular registration ends on July 31, then the application must be submitted no later than August 10).  Fairfax County has changed the way that they administer the scholarship program.  Each club must now submit ALL of their Fairfax County sports scholarship application forms together directly to the county at one time.    In order to allow the county time to process these forms before the season starts,  we will be submitting our scholarship batch by mid August.   The County will only process one batch so we need to set a deadline that will allow Fairfax County time to process these applications and mail out vouchers before the season starts.  If for any reason Fairfax County does not approve your scholarship application, you will then owe the registration fee to Burke AC.  You will need to pay this fee before your child can play.
