Job Summary:
Colby is a member of the New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) and has 32 intercollegiate sports that compete at the Division III level. The department also includes the campus recreation program and hosts a variety of club and intramural sports. More than one-third of Colby’s 2,200 students participate in intercollegiate sports and, in total, nearly three-quarters are involved in fitness and recreation activities in the department.
With an investment of over $250 million into Athletics in the last decade, Colby’s state-of-the-art athletics complex makes the facilities on Mayflower Hill a benchmark for all Division III institutions across the country. The Harold Alfond Athletics and Recreation Center is the central hub of Colby athletics. The 350,000 square-foot athletics center includes basketball and volleyball courts, an indoor track and field competition center, aquatic center with Maine’s first 50-meter pool, squash center, hockey arena, a tri-level strength and fitness center, training rooms, and coaching suites. Additionally, the College opened a 70-acre-plus outdoor competition center that consists of eight competition and recreational fields that are also among the finest outdoor venues in Division III. The College has seen dramatic improvement in the Learfield Director’s Cup standings since the opening of the Harold Alfond Athletics and Recreation Center, elevating to the top-6% of Division III institutions in the yearly standings.
An additional distinguishing feature of Colby College’s Athletic Department is its Peak Performance Program, a comprehensive high-performing model designed to optimize student well-being and performance. Peak Performance integrates sports medicine, strength and conditioning, mental performance, nutrition and sports sciences.
Located in central Maine, the College has incredible access to other outdoor venues such as the Belgrade Lakes and Sugarloaf Mountain Resort, one of the premier ski destinations on the east coast.
