2026 Coronado Surfing Association - Surfing Scholars Program

Each year the CSA provides scholarship funding opportunities to deserving surfing seniors from the graduating class of Coronado High School.  

We welcome applications from all surfers who meet the eligibility requirements as we look to support the next generation of surfers who are about to take their next steps into what we know will be a future of limitless potential (and great waves!).

A few years ago, with support and sponsorship from the Islander Ladies Club, the Stan Searfus Stoke Award was launched alongside the existing CSA Surfing Scholars Program awards. Below, you’ll find ONE APPLICATION for all awards. Just answer the questions and submit it by the deadline, and you’re good to go. We’ll notify winners on Wednesday, May 20, 2026.
