The Brandywine YMCA Barracudas Swim Team is a year-round competitive swimming program that emphasizes character development, teamwork and personal growth. Our well trained and certified coaches help team members achieve their individual potential in spirit, mind and body. Swimmers are challenged to set goals and work toward them in a stimulating, fun and supportive environment.
BRY competes in both YMCA and USA Swimming meets locally, regionally and nationally. The meet schedule features varied types of competition and offers opportunities for achievement for all levels.
