Welcome to the Barracudas
The Lake of the Woods Barracudas is a summer swim team located in Locust Grove, VA. We are part of the Rappahannock Swim League and practice at Sweetbriar Pool in Lake of the Woods. Our aim is to help our swimmers improve their skills, learn good sportsmanship, and have fun while competing against other local teams. Our season runs from Memorial Day until the last weekend in July.
We have lots of fun things planned for the season and hope to see you at the pool.
Parents Meeting and Evaluations
Registration has closed for the 2026 summer swim season!
Our annual Parents’ Meeting will be held on Wednesday, May 13th, from 6:00–7:00 PM in Marion Pronk Hall (the gymnasium) inside the Sweetbriar Community Center. The meeting is intended for both new and returning swim families. This is a great opportunity to learn about officiating and volunteer opportunities, as well as receive important information about evaluations, practices, swim meets, finals, and other updates for the season.
Evaluations will take place on the mornings of May 26th and May 27th. These evaluations help our coaches place swimmers in the practice group that best fits their skill level. For families who are unable to attend the morning sessions, we will also offer an evening evaluation session on May 27th. More information regarding evaluation times will be available soon.
We can’t wait to see everyone back on deck for another great season!
Go Barracudas!
