We use an online registration system, called Active (Hytek). Upon registration you will be required to pay a non-refundable deposit of $100 per swimmer. Half of the remaining fee must be paid by May 5th and then the other half must be submitted to the club by June 1st, 2025.
When you register you will be given options for which squad you’d like your swimmer to join. Once all of the registrations have been received, the club will begin creating a schedule that maximizes our resources. If you register your swimmer in a squad that is not developmentally appropriate they may be moved to a different squad after being assessed by the coaches. The times listed are tentative times only and may change, depending on the final squad sizes and coaching availability.
Except for the beginner squad, training takes place May 1 - July 24. Swimmers who qualify for Provincial Championships will train until July 30th. Practice is every day, Monday to Thursday. Times vary for each squad. Although we encourage swimmers to train four days/week to maximize progress and value, it is not mandatory to attend every practice.
BEGINNER $250 - 4-7 years old who are not able to swim 25m. If you register for both beginner sessions, the second session will be $100.
Session 1, May 5 - June 13: 4-4:30PM FULL OR 4:30-5PM FULL
Session 2, June 16 - July 24: 4-4:30PM OR 4:30-5PM
*Swimmers in this squad who pass the Competition Readiness Standard during the season and would like to join the junior squad may be able to do so for a pro-rated fee, if there is space.
JUNIOR $450 - 4-12 years old who are able to swim 25m but not proficient with all 4 strokes or lacks stamina or interest for longer training times
4-5PM, 5-6PM OR 6-7PM
INTERMEDIATE $500 - swimmers 8 and older who have at least one year of competitive swimming experience and are proficient with all 4 strokes, or are 12 and older with no previous competitive swimming experience
4-5:30PM OR 5:30-7PM
ADVANCED $550 - swimmers 10 and older who have at least one year of competitive swimming experience and must be proficient with all 4 strokes

Fees include a club swim cap. Swimmers supply their own competitive swimsuit (blue or black is preferred) and goggles. The first two children registered are at regular price.
A $50 discount will apply to registrations for a third, fourth, fifth etc. child.
Because space is limited, registration will open March 24 for current members only. An email with the link will be sent to members who were registered for the Beaverlodge Barracudas 2024 swim season. New swimmer registration will commence March 26 and we will post the link on our website and social media.
Our system has a waitlist if groups fill up and we will do what we can to accommodate as many swimmers as possible.
Once you register online with our club you will be asked to register with Swim Canada. You will receive an email with instructions for how to do this. For insurance purposes, no swimmer will be allowed to attend a practice until this final step in the registration process has been completed. The club will pay all of the ASSA, Swim AB and Swim Canada fees once this has been done.
