Athletics Philosophy, Facilities & Sports
Athletic Philosophy: The Student Handbook of states: Lutheran West’s athletic program strives to assist athletes in their spiritual, physical, and intellectual growth. Teams are built to achieve not only excellence and athletic victory but also to display God-pleasing words and behavior in all situations. The program’s intent is to guide young people to "grow both in body and in wisdom, gaining favor with God and all who know them." (Luke 2:52).

Famous quotes containing the words facilities and/or sports:
“Marriage is good enough for the lower classes: they have facilities for desertion that are denied to us.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“The whole idea of image is so confused. On the one hand, Madison Avenue is worried about the image of the players in a tennis tour. On the other hand, sports events are often sponsored by the makers of junk food, beer, and cigarettes. What’s the message when an athlete who works at keeping her body fit is sponsored by a sugar-filled snack that does more harm than good?”
—Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)
