Athletic Department
Mission
The athletic department staff supports the Mission of
Westminster College by enhancing the educational process
through intercollegiate play. We provide our student-athletes the
opportunity for leadership and service through a diverse program of
instruction and competition. Our programs are run in accordance
with the rules and regulations of the National Collegiate Athletic
Association (NCAA), the St. Louis Intercollegiate Athletic
Conference (SLIAC), and the Upper Midwest Athletic Conference
(UMAC).
Sportsmanship
Creed
The Westminster College athletic department staff is committed
to ensuring that fans, spectators, staff and student-athletes
behave in a sportslike manner, especially at intercollegiate
athletic contests. Unsportsmanlike conduct shall subject the
individual to disciplinary action which can include removal from
the playing facility or area.
Additionally, it is our goal to ensure that (a) both teams be
allowed to prepare and to compete in a safe environment, (b) that
the contest be conducted in a manner that discourages spectators or
other unofficial persons from disrupting or interfering with the
event; and (c) that visiting spectators be permitted to support
their team as a group, free from interference and intimidation from
home fans.
