BCW Barracudas & Summer Swimming
Since 1994, the Barton Creek West Barracuda Swim Team has proudly introduced swimmers ages 4–17 to the fun and excitement of summer swimming and friendly competition.
We are an all-volunteer-run, non-profit team based in Barton Creek West, offering young swimmers a chance to grow their confidence, improve technique, and gain race experience in a positive, encouraging environment.
The team is coached by paid professionals and emphasizes fun, friendship, and personal progress. Our eight-week season includes near-daily afternoon practices, weekly swim meets, themed Fun Fridays, and a fun end-of-season celebration.
We are part of the Austin Hills Swim League, and each summer we welcome about 170 swimmers—many from Barton Creek Elementary and West Ridge Middle School.
No competitive experience required! Swimmers just need to be able to swim 25 yards across the pool without assistance.
Our team colors—blue for Barton Creek and green for the beautiful trees that surround our neighborhood—represent the heart of our team spirit.
Ready to swim fast, make friends, and have a blast?
Join the Barracudas! Chomp Chomp Chomp!
