Updates regarding meets for this summer's Long-Course season: Both the Eastern Zone Senior and Age Group championships have been cancelled for this summer.

It is USA Swimming’s intent to open competition on the same day for all member teams throughout the country. We will...

Dear NJB swimmers, coaches, and families; I regret to inform everyone that we unfortunately have to end all lessons, pre-team, practices, and team functions for the remainder of our short-course season. We received notice on Saturday of Kittatinny’s closing and just today that TVRC is doing the same. Furthermore, we have made the difficult decision to postpone our Banquet on April 3rd due to the serious nature of this epidemic and to comply with CDC and health department guidelines limiting large gatherings. We will be reaching out to those registered...

Our 13& Overs swam with heart at the NJ Swimming 13&Over Bronze Championships in Neptune this weekend. They had a bunch of fantastic swims with top places, Personal Best Times, and even some new Silver Times! Of the 53 NJB splashes, nearly 80% (41) were Personal Best Times.

The North Jersey Barracudas offer three different opportunities to help swimmers reach their goals in the pool this spring/summer. For the swimmer that is not quite ready for the commitment and intensity of club team training, we offer a Pre-Team program which teaches proper mechanics for all four competitive strokes, starts, and turns. Whether the goal is to get ready for summer rec swimming, to prepare for the club team experience, or to just fine tune one’s skills, swimmers will meet twice a week to work with one of our...

With swimmers from 10 teams in Region B going head-to-head in this un-scored contest, NJB swimmers took the...
