The Bates Ski Team is one of the most successful teams Bates has to date. With consistent finishes among the top 15 programs in the country, the small school has made itself a familiar face at NCAA championships. The ski team consists of both Nordic and Alpine squads. Each team sends 6 men and 6 women to compete in the eastern carnival circuit, with every individual vying for the opportunity to compete at NCAA's to represent the school at a national level.
The Bates Ski Team also has great camaraderie. We are a very close knit group of skiers who keep in touch way beyond our years at Bates. Our alumni of skiers are consistently seen coming to support the team at Carnivals around the East every year.
