The Cerritos College athletic department will serve the ever-changing needs of its community's diverse student-athlete population.  We will provide the best opportunity for matriculation to a four-year institution.

The athletic department will ensure that the safety and well-being of the student-athlete is first and foremost.

The department will provide courses and/or programs to support skill development along and strength and conditioning development that is specific to the 19 intercollegiate sports that are offered.  The physical development of a student-athlete is crucial in the preparation of athletic competition, career development and transfer.

Through its recruiting process, academic advisement and the Student Athlete Academic Support Program, we will educate student-athletes on National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) academic requirements and introduce them to campus resources, which will facilitate the attainment of the student athlete's educational goals.
