Special Honors
The Kathy Hummel Spirit Award
This award honors the memory of Kathy Hummel, a beloved educator and longtime champion of school Scrabble who inspired countless students through her work with the Long Island program.
Each year at the North American School Scrabble Championship, this honor is presented to a student who demonstrates exceptional sportsmanship, positivity, and encouragement toward fellow players.
Tournament directors, coaches, and students may nominate candidates, and the recipient is selected based on the spirit they bring to the event both on and off the board.
The Barbara Bordwell McGrew Rising Star Award
The Barbara Bordwell McGrew Rising Star Award was established through the generous patronage of Barbara Bordwell McGrew, whose support helps expand and strengthen school Scrabble programs across North America.
Inspired by her interest in encouraging greater participation by girls in competitive Scrabble, the Rising Star Award celebrates the achievements of female players and highlights emerging talent among the next generation of competitors.
The award is presented to the highest-finishing female player or all-girls team outside the Top 10 in their division, recognizing exceptional play and encouraging continued participation in the game.
