The Savannah College of Art and Design Atlanta Bees (SCAD Atlanta Bees) are the athletic teams that represent the Atlanta campus of the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD Atlanta), in Atlanta, Georgia. The SCAD Atlanta school is a member of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA);[1] its athletic teams primarily compete in the Appalachian Athletic Conference.[2] As a college of Art and Design, the school offers a sports lineup unlike most colleges. It is one of the few colleges in the United States to offer a competitive equestrian program, which is offered on the Savannah campus, as a SCAD Savannah Bees athletic team.[3] and is unlikely to ever compete in some of the typical college sports, such as basketball or football.

Achievements

In 2014, the Bees men's golf team were named the NAIA Academic national champions.[4]

Sports

Facilities

Golf is hosted by Legacy Golf Links in Smyrna and The Oaks Golf Course in Covington. Tennis competitions are at the Bitsy Grant Tennis Center in Atlanta.[5]
