The athletics teams of the university are called the Falcons. They have 7 varsity teams for men and 10 for women, most of which compete in the Mid-American Conference. The men's ice hockey team plays in the Central Collegiate Hockey Association, which was re-formed starting with the 2021–22 season by several schools that left the Western Collegiate Hockey Association. Bowling Green had been a member of the first CCHA for that league's entire history (1971–2013).
