Investing in the Future: The Paul Calocino Scholarship

Behind every great official, athlete, and leader is a story of opportunity -- and someone who believed in their potential.

The Paul Calocino Scholarship was created by the Northeast Chapter 2 Volleyball Officials Association to support the next generation of students connected to our officiating family. Established through the commitment of the chapter’s leadership and membership, this scholarship reflects a shared dedication to education, service, and community growth.

More than just financial assistance, the scholarship represents something bigger:
a belief in hard work, character, and giving back -- values that define both volleyball and officiating.

Each year, eligible applicants are invited to share their story, achievements, and aspirations through a structured application process that includes academic records, community involvement, and personal reflection.

Why It Matters

This scholarship is about legacy.

It honors the spirit of those who have contributed to the game -- not just on the court, but in classrooms, communities, and mentoring roles. It ensures that the families of officials continue to have opportunities to succeed and thrive beyond high school.
