Post date: Mar 23, 2018 5:08:23 PM

The North Allegheny Inline Hockey program established the Eric Pelly Scholarship to honor Eric’s life and his love of hockey. Each year, a senior NA Inline player is selected to receive a $1,000 scholarship to help defray the cost of attending college or technical school. This graduating senior must, apply, have a GPA of 3.0 or higher, played inline hockey for at least 2 years and plan to attend a two or four year college or technical school. Each player must submit an application and meet the criteria to be eligible for the award. We encourage all players to apply for this scholarship during their season.

Eric Pelly had a passion for life and an intense love of sports. A talented athlete and student, Eric was part of the North Allegheny Inline Hockey program for many years. While playing rugby during his senior year of high school, Eric sustained his third documented concussion. On October 10, 2006, Eric’s life was cut short from the affects of those concussions.
