Η φιλοσοφία μας

Κανε στίβο μαζι με τους LIMASSOL LIZARDS. Ξεφυλλίστε μαζι μας το βιβλίο της ζωης μέσα απο τον στίβο και ανακάλυψτε το "ΕΙΝΑΙ" σας και γίνετε πρωταθλητές της ζωης. Γίνετε η καλύτερη έκδοση του εαυτού σας. Μάθετε πώς τα άθληματα του Στίβου σας βοηθούν να γίνετε καλύτεροι άνθρωποι . Σκέφτειται πιο άθλημα σας ταιριάζει περισσότερο διαβάζοντας τα πιο κάτω.

Γινε "ΕΜΠΟΔΙΣΤΗΣ". Μάθε να περνάς τα εμπόδια με άριστη τεχνική και μην τρομάζεις όταν πέφτεις.Μεσα απο το άθλημα αυτό θα ξέρεις ότι η ζωή εχει πολλά εμπόδια και το να πέφτεις είναι φυσιολογικό και η ζωή συνεχίζεται. Θα σηκώνεσαι με την εμπειρία πλέον και θα είσαι πιο προσεκτικος την επόμενη φορά.

Γίνε "ΑΝΤΟΧΉΝΤΖΉΣ". Δεν θα σε ακουμπά κανενα άγχος και κανένα βάσανο. Το μυαλό του αθλητή της αντοχής είναι σε αλλο επίπεδο. Ξέρει ότι ολα είναι κατορθωτά, ακόμα και τα ακατόρθωτα για τους περισσότερους. Απλά πρέπει να το βάλει το μυαλό του σε αυτο και με πείσμα και σκληρή δουλειά θα τα καταφέρει. Άμα το ψάχνει και το δουλευει συνεχώς θα βρει τον τρόπο. Η υπομονή του είναι απεριόριστη, η οποια θα τον βοηθήσει και θα τον οδηγήσει στο στόχο. Δεν είναι τυχαίο που λένε οτιη ζωή είναι "ΜΑΡΑΘΏΝΙΟΣ" και ούτε οτι ένας αθλητής μεγάλων αποστάσεων οτι έχει "Αντοχή" .

Γίνε "ΑΛΤΗΣ". Στόχευε πάντα ψηλά και μακριά. Κάνε υπομονή και δουλεψε σκληρά. Μπορείς και λίγο παραπάνω. Μάθε να ανεβαίνεις σκαλί σκαλί και μια μέρα θα φτάσεις στην κορυφή. Βάλε στόχο και όρμα σε αυτόν χωρίς δυσταγμο, είναι ο μόνος τρόπος. Μην μένεις στάσιμος γιατί πάντοτε υπάρχει κάτι που αν το βελτιώσεις θα γίνεις καλύτερος

Γίνε "ΣΠΡΊΝΤΕΡ". Ενα άθλημα που δεν χωράει λάθη. Μάθε ότι με την επανάληψη και την σωστή μεθοδολογια μπορείς να φτάσεις κοντά στο τέλειο. Κάνε εξατομίκευμενη προπόνηση για να βελτιώσεις τα προσωπικά σου λάθη. Χάσε ενα αγώνα αλλά με ρεκόρ και κάνε πάρτυ. Εκτίμησε τον αντίπαλο που σε κέρδισε με σεβασμό γιατί ξέρεις ποσο σκληρά δούλεψε και οτι είναι το άτομο που θα σε πισμωσει για να γίνεις καλύτερος. Να ξέρεις ότι μπορεί να χάθηκε μια μάχη αλλά δεν χάθηκε ο πόλεμος.

Γινε "ΡΙΠΤΗΣ". Μάθε ότι το να έχει κανείς δύναμη ή ταλέντο δεν σημαίνει τίποτα εάν δεν αξιοποιηθεί. Εαν δουλευτεί και εφαρμοστεί σωστά στο αντικείμενο που "ενδιαφερει" τον άλλο τότε θα φτασει μακριά. Για να είμαστε δυνατοί και να φτάνουμε μακρια στην ζωή μας, πρέπει να είμαστε ήρεμοι, μεθοδικοι, προοδευτικά εξελισσόμενοι, στοχευμενοι και συγκέντρωμενοι όπως ενας Ριπτης οταν ρίχνει.

As another season comes to an end, we look back with gratitude, pride, and plenty of great memories.

Like every season, this one had its ups and downs. We celebrated victories, learned from challenges, supported one another, and continued to grow—not only as athletes but as a team and a community.

We are incredibly proud of what our athletes have achieved, both on and off the track. Today, we have three Limassol Lizards athletes studying in the USA, having earned opportunities through their dedication and sporting achievements. It has been a privilege to be part of their journey, and we wish them every success as they continue chasing their dreams.

We also congratulate our athletes who used their sporting achievements to earn additional marks for university admissions, helping them secure places at their first-choice universities across Europe. Your hard work, commitment, and perseverance have truly paid off.

A heartfelt thank you to our volunteers, board members, coaches, sponsors, parents, and everyone who gave their time, energy, ideas, and support throughout the season. Our club is built on the dedication of so many people, and we are grateful for every contribution.

To every Limassol Lizard—thank you for your effort, your passion, and your team spirit. Enjoy a well-deserved summer break, make wonderful memories, and come back refreshed and ready for another exciting season.

See you all in September. Until then, have a fantastic summer!

Today was a special day out with the Limassol Lizards family. Our older athletes, together with some of their families, came together to celebrate Elijah's final days in Cyprus and give him one more chance to enjoy our beautiful island before he begins his next chapter.

Elijah in started training about five years ago. Within just a few months, it was clear he had something special. He won the Cyprus National Championship in the 600m with an outstanding performance, finishing just 1.5 seconds away from the national record.

Over the following years, Elijah consistently fought at the top of the rankings, earning first and second places through the Under-18 and Under-20 age groups. This season, he achieved a major milestone by becoming the Men's National Champion in the 800m and with a personal best of 1:51 for the season, putting himself in a fantastic position for future opportunities with the national team.

We are incredibly proud that Elijah has earned a scholarship to a Division I university in the United States, where he will continue both his academic journey and his athletics career.

On behalf of the coaches, teammates, and everyone at Limassol Lizards, we wish you the very best. Keep chasing your dreams, keep breaking personal bests, and enjoy every moment of this exciting new adventure.

It has been an absolute pleasure to coach you, train alongside you, and watch you grow—not only as an athlete but also as a person.

Good luck, Elijah. Once a Lizard, always a Lizard! 💙🦎🇨🇾🇺🇸
