Chipola College has a strong winning tradition at the conference, regional and national level.  This type of tradition does not come without effort and dedication.  The college is dedicated to its student-athletes’ success on the playing court and field.  The college is equally dedicated to its student-athletes’ success in the classroom and life.  As a student-athlete at Chipola College, you are expected to dedicate yourself to your education and your sport.

As a student-athlete at Chipola College you will be a part of a program that believes in winning.  That belief starts at the top with the president and makes its way through the organizational chart to the lowest level.  The winning starts in the classroom as our student-athletes make their way, with graduation, to the next level.  If the winning does not take place in the classroom, it cannot happen on the playing field or court. 

Our coaching staff will provide you with some of the best coaching available in the NJCAA.  Chipola’s Academic Coaches, along with dedicated faculty, advisors, counselors and fans, will give you the support you need to be successful.  These assets, along with your total effort, will give you every possible chance to reach your fullest potential as a student-athlete.  Chipola has one of the highest transfer rates to Division I schools in the nation. 

I invite you to visit our complete athletic website and our campus.  We are extremely proud of our campus and our facilities.  Our athletic facilities rank with the best in the nation.  The NJCAA Region VIII, and Florida State Men’s and Women’s Basketball Tournament is held in our gym annually.  Our newest athletic facility is our Baseball and Softball Complex featuring chair back seats in the stadium and an indoor batting and pitching facility for baseball and softball.

In 2007 Chipola College became the first and only Florida College to win State and Regional Championships in all four sports in the same year.

In addition, our Baseball and Softball programs both won National Championships while our Men’s Basketball program was runner-up at their National Tournament and the Women’s Basketball program placed fifth in their National Tournament.

Chipola College is the right place for you as a student-athlete.  You will look great in the blue and gold of the Chipola Indians!
