Markus Paul spent 23 years coaching strength & conditioning in the National Football League. He served as the first assistant for 20 of those years with the New Orleans Saints, New England Patriots, New York Giants, and Dallas Cowboys. He held the Director’s position for 3 years of his career with the New York Jets and the Dallas Cowboys.

He was twice named a finalist for the Jim Thorpe Award, and earned First Team All-American honors his senior year. In October 1999, he was named to the Syracuse University's All-Century team. While at the Dallas Cowboys facility, Markus Paul experienced a pulmonary embolism. He went to be with his Lord on November 25, 2020 at the age of 54.
This scholarship was created by the New York Giants, close friends and family of Markus.

The NSCA Foundation owes its existence to the incredible generosity of the NSCA community. Although our commitment is to assist as many applicants as possible, each year the list of exceptional candidates continues to grow, and we cannot fund them all.
Today, we invite you to be a part of shaping the future of strength and conditioning by contributing your financial support, driven by your passion. Every donation, regardless of its size, directly fuels the Foundation's programs, with no overhead costs. Those wishing to make a donation of $200 or more will become esteemed members of our Partners of Excellence Program.
Your donations are the driving force behind our initiatives, whether it's helping to cover educational expenses through our Scholarship program or advancing the profession and supporting research grants for the next generation of strength and conditioning professionals. Your support is invaluable.
