I'm a coach of a middle school girls swimming team. I'm planning on doing a Christmas swim where I pull different activities from a hat, and they do them. The activities are silly things like feet first 50, corkscrew 50, Santa's slay (pull another swimming while they hold onto your fee) stuff like that. I was wondering if you guys had any ideas for some fun things kinda like that.

With send-offs manipulated for your skill level. This is just what I use.
3750 yard set
Or
52 Card Red or Black
Get a deck of cards
Have team separate into lanes choosing either red or black
Give hard set to members who pick wrong color
My favorite 5 x 200 Fly @ 3:00
Give easy set to members who picked correct color
My favorite 5 x sit and splash while others are doing 5 x 200 fly
We use to do this with a starting gun and called it Deerhunter. Six shooter with 3 loaded and 3 empty. But, starting guns are frowned upon these days. It made it a little more exciting.
