Contents

  • pool: National Aquatics Center in Meyuns; and
  • open water: Palau Pacific Resort Beach.
  • All pool events were swum in a 6-lane, short-course (25m) pool; the open water events were 5-kilometres in length (5K).

    Two notes, related to the organization of the meet:

    1. Swimmers who were to compete at the 2005 World Championships, were not allowed to swim in the Mini Games (although the competitions were at the same time).
    2. Full medals were only given out in events with five or more entrants. If an event had four entrants, only the gold and silver medals were award; if an event had only two or three entrants, only the gold medal. Events with fewer than three medals awarded are noted under the event name.

    Event schedule

    Note: This is the same event order as the 2003 South Pacific Games and 2007 South Pacific Games. However, the pool competition is 1 day shorter, which is accomplished by having eight events per day on the first four pool days, rather than six.

    Participating countries

    57 swimmers from 8 countries were entered in the swimming events at the 2005 Mini Games. Countries with swimmers present were:
