The Boston Barracudas were a speedway team. Originally founded mid-season in 1970 by Cyril Crane when the King's Lynn Starlets changed name, they competed in the National League until 1987 at Boston Sports Stadium in New Hammond Beck Road.

In 2000 the club was reformed, known as Boston Barracuda-Braves entering the Conference League but riding at King's Lynn. The team name reverted to Boston Barracudas in 2007 but the club closed down after the 2008 season.
