Established in 1982, the Bethesda Barracudas are a summer swim team sponsored by the Montgomery County Recreation Department that swims at the Bethesda Outdoor Pool near downtown Bethesda, Maryland (see map below). In the summer of 2019, we will compete in Division A of the Montgomery County Swim League (MCSL) as the 6th seeded team among the league's 90 teams.
Whether you are a beginner or have been swimming for years, anyone up to 18 years of age can join our team regardless of where s/he lives as long as s/he can swim one length of the pool at the start of the season.
To join the team, click on the "Register Now" button (to the right) and follow the 2-step registration process (the "Register Now" button will appear on May 13, 2019).
