The Seattle Lutheran High School Athletic Program is organized to cultivate such traits of Christian character as courage, loyalty, cooperation, self-discipline, teamwork, and good sportsmanship.

Athletics at Seattle Lutheran are considered an integral part of the total educational program. The athletic program works within the framework of the schools philosophy. The athletic experience at Seattle Lutheran allows the participant to use and develop their God given talents through activity in a controlled Christian Faith environment.

The world is very competitive. Athletes need to learn how to compete and to give totally of themselves in every activity and be satisfied with their effort, whether in victory or defeat.

Coaches dedicate themselves in the development of all the above mentioned attributes in the young athletes they come in contact with, both on and off the field of competition. Coaches increase the athletes' sense of commitment and develop a new sense of priorities with regard to success.

Success is a Journey, Not a Destination
