Our Mission...
The aim of the Lima YMCA Barracudas is to promote competitive swimming in the Greater Lima within the guidelines of the YMCA goals:
- FOR YOUTH DEVELOPMENT
- FOR HEALTHY LIVING
- FOR SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
Our swimmers enjoy the sport for the fun and the community they compete in. Each swimmer is aided to achieve and surpass their goals in Swimming, Education and Life.
The training at the earliest level focuses on fluency in the water, skill development, and having fun and enjoyment in practice and competition. As the swimmer matures, the emphasis will slowly shift to a more challenging training program without abandoning the concepts of fluency, skill and enjoyment.
