Team Water Ski Vacation? Bennett’s Offers Collegiate Packages!

Bennett’s Water Ski & Wakeboard School is a long time supporter and sponsor of collegiate skiing, NCWSA All-Stars, and NCWSA Nationals. If your team is looking for a place to train together and make it a water ski trip for Spring Break or at other times, be sure to check out Bennett’s!

Collegiate Team Packages

Collegiate skiing has always been a large part of our interest at Bennett’s. We also understand the high cost of participating in competitive skiing, so Bennett’s has always made an effort to make skiing affordable for collegiate teams.

Normal weekly rates at ski schools can range from $650.00 to $950.00. As you can see from the collegiate prices listed (below), Bennett’s has discounted the rates for collegiate teams considerably!!

Groups are welcome to come in early, unload gear, and get the vacation started as soon as possible! Bennett’s is only 90 Minutes from the “Big Easy”-New Orleans, where having a good time is always on the menu!!! The ski school is also located next to Baton Rouge, the Home of the Louisiana State University (LSU) Campus which is only 15 minutes away. Once the ski week begins, Bennett’s offers a variety of handouts for team members to take home. Together we can also discuss any “on or off the water” clinics your group would like to have covered during your stay. We do realize that this is a vacation from school, so we are aware that relaxing, eating well, having fun (along with skiing) are top priorities!!!!

Jay & Anne are both senior USA Judges, and have spent many hours judging, coaching, hosting, and supporting collegiate tournaments. Together, they have been major supporters of collegiate skiing since mid-70’s. From team start-ups to sponsorships, to affordable ski school packages, the Bennett’s continue to lend their support to the sport of collegiate skiing!!!

From time to time Bennett’s may have date conflicts, so please arrange your team’s week as soon as possible. If you or your team needs more information, please call Anne at 1-225-938-1498 or send an email to info@skibennetts.com. The Bennett’s Boat & Ski shop is located on site, and is one of the largest pro shop in the south, with great discounted prices!

College Emails Must Be Used

Students on their team must put their college email address on their application in order to be included in the team group and group rates.  Personal email addresses can be included, but MUST have an email address from the college they are registering with to be considered for the group and the group rate.
