MISSION
The mission of the Sport Performance Department is to help each student-athlete be the best competitor that he/she can be in their sport, as opposed to making them into a body builder, power lifter or olympic lifter. The Sport Performance Department will create programs designed to develop the student-athlete's physical attributes to meet the specific demands of their sport. Success of the program will be measured by a battery of tests specific to the goals of the program, and by performance in competition.

PHILOSOPHY
POWER, LOVE AND SELF-DISCIPLINE
These principles describe the spirit of the Lamar University Sport Performance Department. We strive to help student-athletes reach their fullest potential through hard work.

Proper training methods and great effort can lead to outstanding achievement. Artificial methods of attaining strength, such as the use of performance enhancement illegal substances will not be advocated or tolerated.

We have one rule: ALWAYS BE POSITIVE!! No matter what circumstances life brings your way, deal with it in an adult manner and go on (FIDO - Forget It Drive On). No matter what the sport performance staff asks of you, do it with maximum effort!

GOALS OF THE PROGRAM
1: Positive experiences by our student-athletes in developing athletic attributes, toughness, discipline, and character.
2: Respect by our student-athletes for the Sport Performance Department and staff.
3: WINNING - Putting the physical/mental attributes
developed through the Sport Performance Department to use in competition.
