Winton Filipek Tennis Scholarship
Information and application form
The Filipek Family is pleased to support the student athletes in central Connecticut through a series of $250 - $1,000 scholarships, intended to honor the life of Winton S. Filipek, Sr.
Winton Filipek was a well-rounded athlete in the Meriden area, but it was tennis that held a special place in his heart. Winton was a Meriden city champion at the age of 16, and played exhibition matches with nationally ranked and Meriden's own Lois Felix. A playing span of close to 60 years further allowed Winton to establish a rich tennis legacy. This scholarship fund is one way for our family to honor and remember him.
