The Flagler College Student-Athlete Experience (PDF)
Dear Saints, Prospective Saints, Parents, Alumni, Friends, and Fans:
I hope you will take a moment to read an important document that our entire Athletics Department staff developed for you. It is called, “THE FLAGLER COLLEGE STUDENT-ATHLETE EXPERIENCE”. It represents our commitment to our student-athletes.
Quite often I have the distinct pleasure of meeting with prospective student-athletes and parents when they are visiting our beautiful campus and considering Flagler College as the next step in their educational journey. During such visits, I make it a point to share this document with them. There is no doubt that much is expected from college athletes – competitive success, off-season and in-season strength & conditioning training, high academic achievement, community service, good citizenship, and more. This document clearly shows our student-athletes that they, likewise, can and should expect much from Flagler College and its Athletics Department personnel.
As you will read, we are committed to working together to create an environment in which every student-athlete has a positive collegiate athletics experience, student-athletes are well-prepared for lifelong success following graduation, and meaningful and lasting relationships are built. Please know that this is our priority and promise to our student-athletes. We ask our student-athletes always to hold us accountable in our efforts to maintain these standards.
As we constantly strive to field championship programs in all of our sports, you can trust that we will do so in keeping with our philosophy that
how we win will always be more important to us than simply winning.
Thank you for your continued interest in and support of Flagler College Athletics.
Go Saints!
Sincerely,
Jud Damon
Director of Athletics
