Each year, the Bates women’s varsity teams open their arms to local youngsters to celebrate National Girls and Women in Sports Day.
NGWSD recognizes student-athletes, champions, coaches, administrators, lawmakers, and others who are committed to providing equitable access to sports for all girls and women. In various clinics inside Gray Athletic Building on Feb. 11, the youngsters got a chance to learn a little something about many of the 16 women's varsity sports that Bates offers, including rowing.
