The West Georgia Wolves (UWG Wolves, formerly the West Georgia Braves) are the athletic teams that represent the University of West Georgia, located in Carrollton, Georgia, in NCAA Division I intercollegiate sports. The Wolves compete as members of the Atlantic Sun Conference (ASUN) for their 17 varsity sports. West Georgia had been a member of the Gulf South Conference since 1983, until it was announced that it would be joining NCAA Division I as an ASUN member starting in 2024, while the football team is part of the United Athletic Conference (UAC), a joint venture of the Atlantic Sun and Western Athletic Conference.
In 2026, the ASUN and WAC will reorganize into two separate all-sports entities. The WAC will rebrand as the UAC, which will consist entirely of schools that award football scholarships, except for non-football UT Arlington. West Georgia will join the expanded UAC at that time. The ASUN will consist entirely of schools that do not play scholarship FCS football.
