Hey Barracudas! I’m Coach Ansley and I am an Exercise Science major (pre-physical therapy) at Georgia Southern University. I became a Barracuda at the age of 6 and I swam all the way until I was 18. I also swam for Chattahoochee Gold Club Swim Team for 10 years and for Sequoyah High School for 4 years. My favorite days are Skittle practices!! I’m SO excited for the 2021 swim season!!! ICKY LA BOOMBA & GO ‘CUDAS!
Huge congratulations to our very own Ansley Davis for being named the Atlanta Swim Association 2021 Coach of the Year! We could not be more proud of YOU.....all your hard work, determination, laughter, support and giving heart poured into our team!
Your years as a coach and as a swimmer for over a decade have meant so much to our team and neighborhood! Enjoy your retirement! We will miss you so much. Once a Barracuda always a Barracuda. Icky La Boomba!!
Hi my name is Maddy Rogers and I am one of the coaches for the 2021 season. I’ve been a Barracuda since I was six years old, and I swam for Chattahoochee Gold in high school. I graduated from River Ridge High in 2019 and now I’m attending Georgia State University with a major in nursing. This will be my fourth year coaching for the Barracudas!! I’m so stoked for this season and can’t wait to see all of our awesome swimmers!!!! #CUDASFORLIFE
Hey everyone! I’m Coach Molly and I’m an upcoming junior at the University of Tennessee! This will be my second year coaching after being a Barracuda for 11 previous years and I look forward to see these awesome kiddos grow this summer! I cant wait for an awesome summer! Go Barracudas!!!
I have been swimming for 6 years. I joined Bradshaw Barracudas in the summer of 2015 and loved swimming ever since. Later I started year round swimming for Stingrays. I attend school at Living Science Home Studies and dual-enroll at Chattahoochee Technical College. I enjoy modifying my car, playing guitar, hiking, hanging out with friends, and swimming. I want to be an electrician when I am older and want to attend Chattech full time. I can’t wait for another fun swim season this summer and seeing everyone again!
I’m super excited to be coming back to coach this season! I am about to graduate high school and am hoping to study broadcast journalism in college. I’ve been a Barracuda for 11 years now and have loved every season. I have so much fun spending my time teaching the kids to swim and making the most of the summer and I knew I had to come back and coach! GO CUDAS!
Hey Barracudas! I'm Brett, and I'll be a junior coach this year. I'm a rising junior at Sequoyah High School. I've been swimming for the 'Cudas for 10 years, and I've just completed my second year of swim for Sequoyah. I've wanted to be a coach since I've joined, as everybody knows how much fun we have as a team and I'd like to influence that in some way. Several of my hobbies include running track, swimming (of course), hanging out with friends, and playing piano. I'm looking forward to an amazing season with ya'll! GO CUDAS!!
Hey guys! I’m Suzy Rogers! Im so excited for this year and to coach all of the amazing swimmers at BFB! I’m a sophomore in high school and this will be my 12th year swimming for Bradshaw. I love to swim and I have been swimming for my school's team, The Kings Academy Nights, for 2 years. I also love riding horses! I’m 15 now and I remember when I was younger and wanting to be a coach for BFB. I can’t wait to give other swimmers the amazing team experience I had when I was younger! Let’s make this year the best!! Swim strong!!! GO ‘CUDAS!!!!!!!!
Hi Barracudas! My name is Coach Grant and I am so excited to be coaching for the second time this season! I have been swimming for the Barracudas for 13 years and for Chattahoochee Gold for 12! My favorite part about swimming is getting to have fun on the pool deck and learning new skills in and out of the pool. I have always looked up to my Barracuda coaches which is why I wanted to be a part of this tradition! I can’t wait to have fun at the swim meets and eat lots of donuts on Fun Fridays! Go ‘Cudas!
Hi Barracudas! My name is Laurel Blase and I've been a Bradshaw Barracuda since I was five years old. This is my 12th year. I've also been a year round swimmer for Chattahoochee Gold since I was five! I just got done with my second season as a Sequoyah High School Swim Chief. I can't wait to help share what I know about swimming with you this summer! Go Barracudas!
