Scholarship Announcement 2026
Playmakers Nashville is proud to award its inaugural scholarships to five remarkable young women from Middle Tennessee pursuing careers in sports. This is what community looks like. Through our first-ever scholarship program, we’re putting $15,000 directly behind the dreams of young women who are ready to shape the future of the sports industry, right here in Nashville and beyond.
 
This wouldn’t be possible without the generous support of our founding scholarship partners: Athletes Unlimited, INSBANK, and the Nashville Predators. Together, we’re making sure the next generation of women in sports has the backing, the belief, and the resources to go after it.
"Receiving this scholarship means so much to me — not only does it ease the financial part of pursuing my college education, but it also inspires me to continue working toward my dream of uplifting women in the sports industry.”
—Ellie Latham
Playmakers Nashville Scholarship Recipient
“This scholarship will significantly ease my financial responsibilities, allowing me to focus even more intensely on my master’s studies in Athletic Training.”
— Kimora Esmon
Playmakers Nashville Continuing Education Scholarship Recipient
