Athletics

Champions aren't made in the gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them—a desire, a dream, a vision. — Muhammed Ali

At Lamar High School we create champions by offering a multitude of sports programs and athletic offerings. The goal is to teach children the value of teamwork, the rewards of practice, and the experience of success and defeat. Our campus offers some of the best facilities in Houston—tennis courts, baseball fields, running track, football fields, basketball courts, and gun range. We encourage our students to compete against each other and against students from all over the country to become the very best sportsman possible. At Lamar High School we’re committed to helping students succeed on the field and in the classroom.

Find out more about our sports teams and contact our athletics departments for ways your child can participate in one of the best athletics programs in the country.

According to a study by the Carnegie Corporation, students who participate in constructive, organized school activities are less likely to get involved in risky activities, and while engaged in constructive activities, students learn specific competencies, pro-social values, and attitudes. Lamar’s clubs and organizations are constantly evolving to meet student needs.
