Approximately 30 scholarships will be disbursed in two increments: one in February and one in May upon maintaining academic standing.

A player’s attitude both on and off the ice. Positive attitude towards your teammates, coaches, school, program, and life in general.

L – “LIKEABILITY”
A player’s likeability by the coaches, teammates, classmates and the Alumni. Generally a good person.

U – “UNDERRATED”
A player that may not have the most goals, assists and points at the end of the season. May not be the flashiest player on the team. However, a player that contributes just as much if not more to the benefit of the team based on his reputation and demeanor.

N – “NAIT FOR LIFE”

A player that has become an inspiration to everyone around him – through his attitude, likeability, underrated ability, work ethic in school, and his commitment to putting the team first.
