The Essex Mini League provides a framework for competition between amateur
swimming clubs within the county of Essex. The league currently has 16 member
clubs arranged in a single division. Each club swims in five galas each season,
arranging and hosting one of them. The league organises the fixture list
with the aim that each club will swim against every other club in the league
during the season and not swim against the same club more than once. In practice,
it is impossible to arrange fixtures without compromising these aims to some
extent. Galas are swum on the second Saturday of each month from February to October (excluding August).

The Amateur Swimming Association is committed to promoting
the welfare of children in our sport. They have joined with the National
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children to create SwimLine.
The service is provided for anyone involved in swimming, including children and
young people who believe that the welfare of a young child is at risk. This could
be neglect or abuse, bullying or fear of someone, or anything that is worrying
you and you don't know who to discuss it with.
