The Walter P. Kelly Memorial Scholarship was created in 1997 to remember the extraordinary person that was Walter. We remember Walter as an athlete, a warrior, a brother and most of all a best friend. We hope to keep his spirit and passion for life living through this endeavor.

The Walter P. Kelly Memorial Scholarship is awarded every other year to a scholar athlete from the Staten Island Boys Football League. The recipient of the scholarship is chosen from a group of applicants by the selection committee through an interview process. The award is a partial scholarship that pays for a part of the young man's schooling while he attends Monsignor Farrell High School.

If you know anyone that meets these criteria and needs help in attending Monsignor Farrell that plays football at SIBFL please contact us.
