For Tertiary-level athletes, they must possess a good athletic record from the immediately preceding semesters or academic years and have notable achievements in sports competitions.
Candidates must also have represented Davao City in their respective sport and shown consistent participation in regional or national events within the last two years.
The scholarship shall be valid for the duration of the academic program, provided that the student-athlete maintains strict compliance with all academic, athletic, and conduct-related requirements.
