Bulldog Aquatic Club of Northville

Want to Join Bulldog Aquatic Club?

The Bulldog Aquatic Club exists to promote the development of kids and teens into responsible athletes through the sport of swimming.   

  • We work to achieve our purpose by encouraging our swimmers to Work Hard, Be Disciplined, Work as a Team, Set Goals, and Swim with Confidence.  
  • We also promote and support the academic success of our athletes.
  • We are a year-round competitive swim team, not a recreational team.    
  • We seek to be well represented and successful at the State level, Sectional level and beyond.  

Bulldog Aquatic Club (BAC) attracts swimmers from Livonia, Northville, Novi, Plymouth, Canton, Westland and other nearby Detroit, Michigan suburbs.  We swim out of the Northville High School (primary) and Livonia Churchill (backup) pools.  Our pride is our swimmers; our mission is excellence; our home is the water; our family is the team; our name is B-A-C.

The club is open to all ages and experience levels. Must be able to swim 25 yards Freestyle and 25 yards Backstroke. Knowledge of Butterfly and Breaststroke is recommended but will be taught. Evaluations are held based on Coaches discretion on a first-come first-serve basis.  See below link to submit request for an evaluation. If your swimmer may struggle with those requirements, consider joining the Mini Bulldog Swim School! 

You must bring the two forms listed below to the evaluation.  You can link to these forms by clicking on them:

NOTE: 

  • We generally hold an evaluation at the beginning of each session for new swimmers interested in joining the team.  Swimmers can be evaluated for group placement and they are welcome to stay and watch to see what practice and the team are like.
  • We generally do not add new members during the middle of a session but can make exceptions based on circumstance and coach availability for a tryout. 
  • Exceptions may be made for high school swimmers and/or those with current competitive swim team experience so reach out to coach. 
  • Please contact our Membership Coordinator if you have any questions!
