Current Projects
Tiger Pride Annual Athletic Scholarship Fund
The Tiger Pride Annual Scholarship Fund provides annual financial support to fund athletic scholarships through a general scholarship fund. The funds raised will offset the costs of scholarships for current student-athletes. The annual cost for scholarships continues to climb and building a healthy annual scholarship fund is vital to the future success of LSU Athletics.
UC Golf Course Renovations
The Tiger Athletic Foundation is in the process of raising private funds to renovate the University Club Golf Course.
LSU Basketball Practice Facility
Ground was broken in the summer of 2008 for the latest vision for LSU basketball, a new practice facility for the men's and women's teams at LSU.
Scholarship Endowment Program
While at LSU, the demands on a student-athlete are tremendous. Each student-athlete who wears the Purple & Gold is expected to consistently perform at a high level on the playing field and in the classroom. In an effort to recognize the hard work put forth by every past and present student-athlete at LSU, the Tiger Athletic Foundation is pleased to announce the "Foundation of Champions" athletic scholarship endowment program.
Make Your Pitch Baseball/Softball
A new era of LSU Baseball is on the horizon! LSU is in the planning stage for the construction of a new baseball stadium on the LSU campus. The all-new Alex Box Stadium will be one of the finest baseball facilities in the country, and will be home to the nationally renowned LSU Tiger baseball program. LSU's softball stadium, Tiger Park, was constructed in 1995 to re-introduce softball as a sport at LSU. Since that time, the program has grown into one of the most prominent in the country, and it is in need of a facility that reflects LSU's commitment to excellence. The new stadium will be located on Skip Bertman Drive, across from the LSU School of Veterinary Medicine. First pitch is scheduled for the 2008 season.
LSU Softball Building Fund
LSU Softball is calling on your support to help enhance and improve the new Tiger Park Softball Stadium.
LSU Soccer Building Fund
The Tiger Athletic Foundation has launched the LSU Soccer Building Fund. These funds will provide the investment necessary to begin the foundation to improve the LSU Complex into a world-class soccer stadium on par with other major universities.
"I Like Mike" - Mike the Tiger Habitat Renovation
The old enclosure for Mike the Tiger is only 2,000 square feet in size with minimal amenities. The new environment created for Mike is 15,000 square feet in size with lush planting, a large Live Oak tree, a beautiful waterfall and a stream evolving from a rocky backdrop overflowing with plants and trees. The habitat has, as a backdrop, an Italianate tower, a campanile, that creates a visual bridge to the Italianate architectural vernacular that is the underpinning of the image of the entire beautiful LSU campus. This spectacular new habitat features state-of-the-art technologies, research, conservation and husbandry programs, as well as educational, interpretive and recreational activities. It is, in essence, one of the largest and finest Tiger habitats in the United States.
Football Operations Center
The new LSU Football Operations Center connects to the current indoor practice facility. It has been designed to have everything the team needs under one roof.
TAF Capital Programs Fund
The Tiger Athletic Foundation has undertaken a variety of building projects across campus to support our various sports and the student-athletes. The Capital Programs Fund ensures that these projects will be well maintained along with providing the initial funding for new projects.
