The main facility for Mariner athletics is Lake Pointe's gymnasium. 

  • Directly connected to the main academic building, the gym features both regulation basketball and volleyball courts. 
  • Two volleyball side courts are also in place for practice. 
  • Originally built for a private fitness center and later a YMCA facility, the gym features a classic, maple hardwood floor.  
  • The indoor space is also used for inclement weather, indoor practices for other sports.

 

Facilities for other sports
 

Cross Country
Practices are usually held on campus. For variety, the team also hits the trails at Nanny's Mountain, Allison Creek, and other similar, local sites.  

Soccer

Boys and girls teams' soccer home matches and practices are usually scheduled at Clover (SC) town recreational parks, including Field Day Park in Lake Wylie and New Centre Park in Clover.  

Golf

Home golf practices and matches have been scheduled at various courses, with a favorite being York's Spring Lake Country Club. Interestingly, for a couple of years, the golf team once used Carolina Downs Golf Course as home base. Lake Pointe's Event Center is the clubhouse from that course. The academy purchased the building and surrounding acreage after Carolina Downs closed and sold its property. 

Other athletic events

LPA's campus has three small fields that allow for flag football, ultimate Frisbee, outdoor volleyball, and other recreational sports.

 

A legacy of athletic facility support

Since the athletic program began in 2008, Mariner sports teams have benefited from the generous provision and cooperative support of several local churches and organizations. Lake Pointe remains deeply grateful to these organizations and their leaders.
