Welcome!
The Barracudas welcome you to our winter season. We are excited for your swimmer to be swimming with us!
Our swim team is for the recreational swimmer and focuses on proper swimming technique as well as proper nutrition and the importance of exercise in our daily lives. Winter season is more competitive, but equally as fun as the summer season. Swimmers will become more confident in their swimming and will show improvement continually throughout the season.
The Bedford Barracudas are a proud member of the PYSA (Piedmont YMCA Swimming Association) League. The PYSA League consists of 10 teams: Altavista, Alleghany, Bedford, Danville, Eden, Farmville, Franklin County, Martinsville, South Boston, and Tazewell. Most meets will be held on Saturday mornings.
The BAY Barracuda Swim Team is open to all children who are members of the Bedford Area Family YMCA. We do not hold tryouts -- all children 4 years old to 18 years old are eligible to compete with the team. Swimmers must be a YMCA member to participate and monthly swim team fees must be paid for each swimmer (please see below for more specifics about the swim team fees).
