Stefan Savoie Memorial Scholarship
Stefan Savoie inspired passion in the game of Volleyball in both indoor and beach and were staples in his life. He was the energy on the court, he was the player who changed momentum, he was the athlete that every coach knew was needed to inspire passion on the court. Stefan excelled in both disciplines of the sport he loved. This was evident through his experiences on his high school team, his club teams, his provincial teams and his university team. The pinnacle of his career was being with Team Canada and representing Manitoba at the Canada Games in Beach Volleyball. His competitive nature, compassion for his teammates and thirst to excel was never compromised. This scholarship is to recognize athletes who represent that passion for the sport of volleyball, just as Stefan did in his life.
