Gardner-Webb offers scholarships for the following sports: men’s and women’s basketball, golf, soccer, swimming, tennis, track, men’s baseball, football, wrestling, women’s softball, lacrosse, and volleyball. Any questions concerning eligibility for a scholarship should be directed to the Coach of the sport of interest.
