George Athans

George Athans CM (born 6 July 1952) is a Canadian retired competitive water skier.

Also known as George Athans Jr. to distinguish him from his father, Canadian Olympic Hall of Fame diver George Athans Sr. Born in Kelowna, British Columbia, Athans was a member of the Canadian water ski team from 1966 to 1974 and participated in his first world championship in 1967.

At his final national championship in 1974, his closest competitor was his brother, Greg Athans.

A knee injury prevented Athans from competing for the Canadian title in 1975 and he retired from competition.

During his competitive career, Athans moved to Montreal to attend Sir George Williams University.
