These kids are squirts!!! Calm down daddy that wishes he was still playing back in the day for that 7th place trophy he missed out on. I mean seriously people.
How about this idea? If the kids cant go swimming and have fun, then maybe the parents shouldnt be allowed to have a beer between games. How does that work for everyone?
If a kid has a game at 10am...there is nothing wrong with going for a swim from 1130-1230. The kid will use less energy swimming then he would running the halls anyways. Plus keep in mind its squirts!! Its not the state high school tournament people.
If you are taking the squirts on a hockey trip?! Then you are one of those coaches that is far to competitve. You might need to take a step back, and re-evaluate what this is all about. Its about these kids having fun. What happened to that? When I played hockey we would get kicked out of the pool, and then jump into the hot tub. Then when they kicked us out of the hot tub we would jump into the pool. These tournaments are about bonding, and having fun! Winning should never ever be the most important thing at the squirt level! And if you think other wise then you are one of "those" parents and are in the minority.
