All but a few collegiate water ski teams are self-funded, with no assistance from the colleges/universities.  Teams are using old equipment, traveling long distances to compete, and have training costs of gas and insurance.

​

The Foundation has established a fund from which grants may be awarded to collegiate teams.  Funds will be used for unreimbursed team expenses such as equipment, travel (air, hotels, transportation), entry fees, and training expenses (boat gas, coaching, lake rental).   

Collegiate Water Ski Teams may apply year-round.  A small committee will review each application and decide if a grant will be given out two weeks after receiving the application.  The Grant Committee Chair will inform the team and the Foundation treasurer, and the funds will be sent to the team as soon as possible!
