We CLIMB together
The mission of the UFV Athletics community is to CLIMB. The five CLIMB values are the standards that we uphold every day as Cascades, as student-athletes, and as leaders.
"We know the values we learn as Cascades will help us win in competition, in the classroom, in the community and into the future. CLIMB is tough, but we will win."

What does CLIMB stand for?
Chase Peak Performance
Our Success/Outcomes Value
Chasing peak performance is about doing our absolute best and reaching ambitious goals. This means consistently striving for progress and putting forth peak effort to overcome challenges.
Lead by Example
Our Leadership/Character Value
Leading by example is about being a positive influence on others. It means being a proud Cascades representative and culture leader. This is about developing the integrity of our character to earn the trust and respect of others.
Include, Involve & Inspire
Our Teammate/Community Value
To include, involve and inspire is how we learn to foster a welcoming environment and be a great teammate. Cascades strive to build meaningful connections by celebrating each person's uniqueness and ensuring everyone feels valued.
Make Progress, Make a Difference
Our Work Ethics/Contribution Value
Making progress and making a difference requires dedication, perseverance, and hard work. As Cascades, we learn to be resourceful in the face of adversity and remain committed to finding ways forward.
Be All In
Our Attitude/Commitment Value
Being all in means being wholeheartedly invested in what we’re doing. We commit to taking pride in what we do, developing confidence, and having an unstoppable mindset.
"To me, being a Cascade is a lifestyle. It’s a way to build connections, surround ourselves with a good community, and compete at our very best."
