NOW HIRING SWIM TEAM COACHES

The Barracuda Swim Team is looking to beef up our coaching staff with a couple new ‘Cuda Coaches! Former competitive swimmers, those who love swimming and kids – please contact us to get involved! Coaches are paid for their time and get a FREE Y membership and program (including swim team)
discounts! For more information, contact Head Coach Don Eisinger at JCAY@live.com, or Lisa Dyer at 573.761.9007 or ldyer@jcymca.org.


Be a Barracuda!
Be a ‘Cuda… A team with a 40-year tradition in Jefferson City! Swimmers on the swim team learn all four competitive strokes, diving off the blocks, competitive swim turns and lots more. Swimmers receive an excellent workout each day from coaches who care!  Every swimmer is a winner on the Barracudas with no bench warmers! Everyone who makes the team, is part of the team! Practices are held each day, but swimmers attend only as many as their schedules allow.  The Barracudas participate in swim competitions around the area. Swimmers select which meets they will attend as well.  The team has two seasons, a fall-spring season, and a summer season. However, swimmers can join anytime! 

Try Out Criteria: If your swimmer can swim one length of the pool doing the crawl (freestyle) with some side breathing, and one length of the pool on their back, contact us to schedule a try out! For more information, see us on the web at www.jc-barracudas.com.

YMCA membership is required. Click HERE for membership information.

Team fees are $70/monthly.  Enrollment Fees are $50/swimmer and are collected when the swimmer signs up.
