A wide variety of competitive sports is provided for Menard students. Such activities are designed to help the student to develop his/her talents and interests and to learn how to live, work, and share cooperatively with others. Student activities not only add to the enjoyment of school life, but also permit the student to develop broader insights and experiences in cultural, political, social, and athletic areas.
Menard has an outstanding history of excellence in all sports, having achieved district, regional and state championships in baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, softball, track and tennis. Students are invited to consult with sponsors and coaches to express an interest in taking part in any of the school organizations or Louisiana District 3-2A interscholastic athletics. See the drop-down menu to the left for the full list of sports offered at Holy Savior Menard.

Lettering in Athletics
A student athlete is eligible to receive a letter jacket after the student has participated in a varsity or academic entity for at least two years. The school issues only one letter jacket during the athlete’s time at Holy Savior Menard. A student who transfers from another school must be enrolled for one year before he/she becomes eligible to receive a letter jacket. If a student transfers from Holy Savior Menard to another school in the central Louisiana area before his/her letter jacket is awarded, he/she will not receive the jacket.
Holy Savior Menard is a member of the Louisiana High School Athletic Association (LHSAA). Lettering in athletics is subject to the regulations outlined in the LHSAA Handbook. The school awards a letter to any athlete who completes a season and meets the lettering participation requirements of the sport. If, in the judgment of the head coach, a student has made a significant contribution to the program during the season, that student may receive a letter without strict fulfillment of the participation requirements of the sport. Participation requirements for lettering (not letter jackets) in each sport are as follows:
-
Baseball: Play in at least 1/2 or more of the innings during the season.
-
Basketball: Play in at least 2/3 of the scheduled games.
-
Cross Country: Place in the district or state meet or participate in at least 3 varsity competitions.
-
Football: Play in at least 16 quarters during the regular season.
-
Golf: Play in at least 1/2 of the scheduled matches or participate in the regional tournament.
