Summer 2021 Information
The Bridgewater Barracudas Board of Directors have been hard at work planning off season swim sessions and for the second year planning continues in hopes of a summer swim season! Some information on planning: 1. We have our coaches! We welcome back, in a different role, Head Coach Lucas Sangster; as well as our three Assistant Coaches Sarah Johnson, Julia O'Regan, and Adam Culbert. All coaches are certified through Swim Nova Scotia programs and are all former Cudas swimmers. 2. We are working with the Town of Bridgewater to make use of the O'Regan Subaru Outdoor Pool for the summer. Things will operate a little differently when Dr. Strang gives us the Ok to proceed:
3. Registration for the Summer program will commence once the lockdown has ended and we have a better grasp of whether we can extend the Spring session later into June or not. An email and social media announcement will be sent out to members of 2019 and our current off season members as soon as we have confirmation from Swim Nova Scotia that we are able to resume. |

Who We Are
The team focus is on fun, sportsmanship, and fair play. Through training and coaching, swimmers will improve their level of skill therefore gradually working up to a competitive level while enjoying the benefits and comradery of being part of a team.
A big part of our team philosophy is mentorship, whereby the older swimmers can apply to be mentors or junior coaches. They act as helpers for the coaching staff (who are mentors to them) and as role models for the swimmers. They learn coaching techniques and gain valuable coaching experience with the team.
The club would not be able to function without a significant level of support from parents/guardians during the swim season. There are lots of possible volunteer possibilities, big and small: there is something for everyone. For a list of the volunteer opportunities and what they entail please refer to our parent handbook. Contact us, if you are interested in volunteering or have further questions.
