The WWU Waterski team is a three event team competing in three-event waterskiing: slalom, trick, and jump. Our team competes against other west coast schools, as well as on a national level each year. On average, our team has about 15 members and competes in 7-8 tournaments a year. The WWU Waterski team is the only actively competing tournament waterski team in the state of Washington and seeks to actively keep the sport alive by recruiting new skiers to the sport. The team placed 9th in the Nation at the National Championship and 2nd on the West Coast at the Western Regionals in the Fall of 2019.
Our team currently practices on Bow Lake in Bow, Washington and has previously practiced at Borderline Lake and Lake Samish in the past. Much of our team success is attributed to the help and volunteer coaching of Terry Goodman and his family. Our team has many expenses associated with practice and travel which can often make it difficult to afford both practice and competition, as most of our team are paying for these expenses out of pocket. The normal included are airfare, rental car fees, gas, lake rental, equipment, registration fees, and more. The WWU Waterski Team is hoping to complete the purchase of a boat for our upcoming season to continue our team and the sport in Washington State. Any amount helps and is truly appreciated by every member of our team! Let's go Vikings!!
