[quote=Anonymous]Minis vary by pool. Our is that if you will separate from your parent, put your face in the water and swim by any means for 5-10 meters you are mini. The goal for the season is to get all the minis swimming a full 25 by the end of the season. Once you can swim a 25 you are on the regular swim team as an 8 and under.

The minis practice is that each mini is in the water with a mini-coach who is a 12-15 year old on the swim team. The swim team coaches give directions to the mini coaches who help each mini practice stuff like kicking and arm pulls. The minis “compete” in the B meets in events that swim across the dive well, with their mini coach in the water with them. It’s the most adorable part of summer swim: you see these teenagers who you remember being a mini seemingly yesterday, but now looking so big and grown, helping the littlest ones across the pool. Then you see both the mini and their coach celebrating like they just won the Super Bowl when they make it across. [/quote]
