In the free agent,steroid using, multi-million $ earning, and probably fixed modern era of sports I can think of no better line. I’ll always love sports, but I’m a real skeptic pessimist about professional leagues now.

Agree with everything u said but the Fixed part. Athletes today are just that much better than the pre steriods age of yester year. Also the equipment used is that much better so that helps also.

A successful team beats with one heart.

Sports are 90% inspiration and 10% perspiration.

Toughness is in the soul and spirit, not in muscles.

You get the best out of others when you give the best of yourself.

TEAM — Together Everyone Achieves More

Sports do not build character, they reveal it.

Triumph is just try with a little umph added.

If you fail to prepare, you prepare to fail.

No guts, no glory. No pain, no gain.

Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships.

Winners never quit and quitters never win.

Ask not what your teammates can do for you. Ask what you can do for your teammates.

Never let a win get to your head, or a loss to your heart.

You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.

Don’t let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game.

thanks in advance, any bit helps.

Well, for lacrosse, there are lots of them and I would recommend checking out lacrosseforums.com. For other sports, you could just google "sports quotes" or something. But anyway, here are some really good ones:
"Somewhere, someone is practicing. And when you meet him on the field face-to-face, one-on-one, He’ll beat you. Unless that someone practicing is you. So work the left, run the stairs, and crank the corners. Give it everything you’ve got, every day. And when you feel tired, or feel like quitting, ask your self, is the other guy tired? Is he quitting?"
I firmly belive that any man’s finest hour is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle,victorious.
-Vince Lombardi
Not the victory but the action; Not the goal but the game; In the deed the glory - Memorial
Stadium

"How hard would you play today, if you couldn’t play tomorow?"

"Hard work can beat talent, when talent doesn’t work hard enough."

"Far and away the best prize that life offers is the chance to work hard at work worth doing."
-Theodore Roosevelt

Pain is Temporary-Pride is Forever

What does not break me makes me stonger

Greatness is not in where we stand, but in what direction we are moving. We must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it — but sail we must and not drift, nor lie at anchor.

"You train as a team, you win as a team and you lose as a team"
- Dutchylacrosse
Pain is weakness leaving your body

"It does not matter how many times you get knocked down, but how many times you get up."

"regret nothing. fear less."

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation
We are what we repeatedly do
Excellence then is not an act but a habit
~Aristotle~
"What I want is to be number one" -Pre
Go hard or go home

The only easy day was yesterday.

Your biggest challenge isn’t someone else. It’s the ache in your lungs and the burning in your legs, and the voice inside you that yells, "CAN’T", but you don’t listen. You just push harder. And then you hear the voice whisper "can" and you discover that the person you
thought you were is no match for the one you really are.

If you don’t know how — we’ll teach you, if you dont want to — we’ll make you

The starting point of all achievement is desire. Keep this constantly in mind. Weak
desire brings weak results, just as a small amount of fire makes a small amount of heat.

Love the pain,
Love the gain.

"I used to fight the pain, but recently this became clear to me: pain is not my enemy; it is my call to greatness."

There is no better way to fight weakness than with strength. Once the mind and body have been awakened to their true potential, it’s impossible to turn back.

Always remember your strength comes from deep inside

It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement; and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat. -Teddy Roosevelt

Pain in victory, glory in defeat,
Honor in death, pride in life,
A smiling face, without fear,
On a man who puts his ass in gear.

"The mind is the limit. As long as the mind can envision the fact that you can do something, you can do it, as long as you really believe 100 percent."

"Change is Inevitable, Progress Isn’t"

The worst thing I can be is the same as everybody else.

Make them want to be you

"You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it come true. You may have to work for it, however"

It’s the constant and determined effort that breaks down resistince, sweeps away all obstacles.

‘tomorrows success begins with todays effort’

‘The difference between goals and accomplishments is purely desire’

"You’ve got to get up every morning with determination if you’re going to go to bed with satisfaction."

To truly try is to give all you have, when you have nothing left."

I wanted the quotes for my PED exam

Why? Look at the sexism and ignorance displayed by some of the posters who answered this question: They assume women’s sports is boring, that no one goes to women’s sporting events, and that women’s sports are not important to girls or women or their families.

-They are wrong. According to the NCAA, in 2009, over 11 million people went to Women’s College Basketball games. Sounds like 11 million ppl don’t think women’s college basketball is boring, since they all went to a woman’s college basketball game this past season: http://www.ncaa.org/wps/ncaa?key=/ncaa/ncaa/sports+and+championship/general+information/stats/w+basketball/attendance/index.html

The NCAA reported that in 2008, over 1 million ppl attended Women’s College volleyball games: http://www.ncaa.org/wps/ncaa?key=/ncaa/ncaa/sports+and+championship/general+information/stats/volleyball/attendance/attendance.html

-Millions of girls are interested in sports as well. The number of girls playing high school sports in 2001 was 2.8 million girls; it’s over 3 million now. The number of women playing college sports in 2001 was over 150,000. Obviously, women’s sports is important to many girls, women and their families: http://www.womenssportsfoundation.org/Content/Articles/Issues/Title%20IX/T/Title%20IX%20Q%20%20A.aspx

-In the days before Title IX, only one in 27 girls played varsity high school sports. Similarly, 32,000 women athletes played on intercollegiate teams prior to Title IX.

-By 2001, that figure was up to one in 2.5, for a total of 2.8 million girls playing high school sports. Similarly, in 2001, over 150,000 women played on intercollegiate teams.

- Athletic scholarships for women were virtually non-existent prior to Title IX, but by 2003, there was more than $1 million in scholarships for women at Division I schools.
