VISION OF THE PROGRAM:

WE WANT TO BUILD A PROGRAM OF CHAMPIONS. WE CONSISTENTLY COMPETE FOR AND WIN CHAMPIONSHIPS.WE ARE DEDICATED TO FALLING IN LOVE WITH THE PROCESS OF DEVELOPMENT, COMPETING AND EVERYDAY GROWTH. WE ARE GOING TO BE CONSIDERED THE MODEL PROGRAM IN OUR LEAGUE.

INTENSITY WILL BE OUR IDENTITY.

WE ARE GOING TO WORK EVERY DAY ON THE FOUR C’S OF DEVELOPMENT AT ORU SOCCER. COGNITION, COMPETENCE, CHARACTER, AND COMPETITIVENESS. WE ARE GOING TO FOCUS ON HOW WE CAN GET BETTER ON A DAY-TO-DAY BASES KNOWING THAT RESULTS WILL TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES. WE ARE GOING TO FOCUS ON THE BEHAVIORS OF A CHAMPION. WE ARE GOING TO FOCUS ON THE ROOT NOT JUST THE FRUIT. WE ARE GOING TO FALL IN LOVE WITH THE PROCESS OF BEING A CHAMPION. WINNING WILL ALWAYS BE THE POINT BUT NEVER THE PURPOSE.

SUCCESS IN THE CLASSROOM IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS SUCCESS ON THE FIELD. WE WILL COMPETE IN THE CLASSROOM AS MUCH AS WE COMPETE ON THE FIELD. WE WILL PREPARE OUR STUDENT-ATHLETES FOR MEANINGFUL CAREERS AND GRADUATE ALL OUR STUDENT-ATHLETES SO THEY CAN BECOME WHOLE LEADERS FOR THE WHOLE WORLD. WE WILL BE CHAMPIONS IN THE CLASSROOM. ALSO, WE WILL CONTINUE TO BE A CHAMPIONS FOR CHRIST. JESUS GAVE HIS LIFE, TO GIVE US LIFE, SO WE CAN SHOW HIS LIFE THROUGH US. CONTINUING TO CULTIVATE OUR PERSONAL RELATIONSHIPS WITH OUR SAVIOR SO THAT OTHERS SEE CHRIST THROUGH US, THIS WILL ALWAYS BE OUR FOCUS.

WE WILL APPRECIATE THE SACRED OPPORTUNITY TO REPRESENT OURSELVES, THIS TEAM, THIS UNIVERSITY, AND CHRIST AS A CHAMPION AND WITH PRIDE. WE WILL EMBRACE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE A PART OF SOMETHING BIGGER THAN OURSELVES. WE SHARE THIS ONE COMMON VISION IN OUR QUEST TO BE CHAMPIONS.
