Our athletic teams and individual athletes show passion and determination, helping to build Lion Pride and create a strong sense of community!

Luther Lions: Building Skills and Spirit

Being involved in sports helps students stay healthy, fosters team spirit, and builds important life skills like cooperation, communication, sportsmanship, and time management. With the biggest high school gym in Regina, students have plenty of opportunities to get active and engaged.

“I played volleyball and basketball as a Luther Lion. I especially appreciated the relationships with my teammates and the leadership from my coaches. Coaches were very easy to talk to and gave me good advice, support, and encouragement. It was amazing to play in and experience helping with both the L.I.T. and L.I.V.T. tournaments.

The teachers at Luther were very approachable and supportive. I greatly appreciated that they offered additional study help and tutorials, and were always willing to answer questionMy experience as a student at Luther helped me with time management skills, study habits, and establishing a good routine which has served me well in university. The writing skills I developed at Luther helped me learn to write quality essays so I was especially prepared for university-level writing.”

Athletic Teams

Tryouts begin in early March with twenty students of both genders comprising the squad. Several mini-meets occur each week, giving players a chance to play in a tournament format against two or three schools before the city championship which occurs on the last Saturday in April. Players who win gold or silver at cities advance to regionals and sometimes even to provincial finals.

We need a minimum of four boys and four girls from each grade to fill out our Luther College High School team roster. We run non-competitively on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays with the goal of improving fitness through aerobics. We represent Luther competitively each Tuesday after school at Douglas Park. Our season goes from the first day of school in the fall until the middle of October.

The overall philosophy is to have fun, but at the same time we encourage skill and strategy development. We also work on the development of interpersonal skills such as working together co-operatively and following through on a commitment. The curling season runs from the beginning of November to the middle of February. There are both recreational teams and competitive teams.

Currently, the Lions are in the Regina Intercollegiate twelve man Football League (RIFL) as a part of the Stewart Conference (5A) playing against Balfour, Greenall, Johnson & Martin. The regular season consists of 5 games. Four out of the 5 teams in the league progress onto the post season which consists of a semi-final and city final game. City final champions compete in the provincial semi-final for a chance to play in the provincial final, held in early November. All Luther College High School students are eligible to play providing they meet SHSAA and Team guidelines. Additionally, students must have the permission of a guardian, as well as medical clearance to participate.

Every year, Luther College High School fields a competitive golf team to participate in a series of tournaments. There are usually four tournaments in May and a city championship held in early June. Qualifying and provincial championships are played in the fall. Teams are co-ed and players come from every grade. To play competitive high school golf, players should have experience on a championship-length golf course.

The Luther Lions hockey program offers students an excellent opportunity to participate in a fun, yet competitive co-curricular program sanctioned by the RHSAA. Both female and male students are on the roster of the Luther College High School hockey team. In past years, the hockey team has travelled to places such as North Dakota, Calgary, Edmonton and Winnipeg to play exhibition games and to attend professional hockey games.

The pom team is a blend of gymnastics, dance and traditional cheerleading. The team performs and competes at various events and competitions. This year, Luther will have two teams – one Pom, and one dance.

Boys Soccer Boys soccer has about forty boys involved in our senior and junior squads. League games are Tuesday and Thursdays and we take part in tournaments around the province in Yorkton, Saskatoon, Caronport and Swift Current. Girls Soccer Twenty to twenty-five enthusiastic girls from Grades 9 to 12 participate in the Girls soccer program each year. League games are held on Mondays and Wednesdays, and we take part in the Moose Jaw Soccerfest tournament in September. Our goals are to become a strong team and have fun by playing with energy and grit, improving our skills, building strong team spirit and developing new friendships.
