Crusader Athletics
Marian’s Athletic Program is an integral component of the student athlete’s overall experience at Marian. While the immediate objective of the athletic competition is to win, our challenge as educators and coaches is to prepare students for winning and losing gracefully with the full understanding of the broader purpose of sports: which is to develop a balanced Christian woman. The values of teamwork, leadership, work ethic, respect, accountability, perseverance and self-control are among the many Christian values the athletic department staff strives to instill in Marian’s student athletes.
The opportunities for personal growth and achievement are abundant in the athletic arena. The athletic department goal is not only to provide a wide variety of athletic experiences but also to help each young woman and each team to have opportunities to reach a high level of success defined by progress and winning.

Forms will need to be attached to the email in a .pdf or .doc format. Once submitted, you will receive a confirmation of receipt email with directions on how to confirm you have completed the requirement(s).
If your daughter intends to participate on any athletic teams at Marian, a new, yearly physical is required by the NSAA (Nebraska Schools Activities Association). In order to be valid for the school year, this physical must be dated AFTER May 1. This is required of ALL students who wish to participate in any athletics for the school year.
The deadline for fall sports is August 7th, 2025, for winter sports November 13th, 2025, and spring sports is Feb. 26th, 2025.
You must complete the parental consent and signatures on the Marian form, even if you have a different form from your physician.
