Ricky Millns

Ricky Millns is a 5th year swimmer with the University of Victoria Vikes, where he's set multiple program records and earned many awards and medals. Heading into his last year of swimming, he is now beginning the transition from the pool to the pool deck. Ricky comes from Campbell River, BC, where he was the Head Coach of the Campbell River Salmon Kings Summer Swim Team for the past 6 years.

As a lifelong swimmer, and son to a career coach, Ricky is very passionate about swimming and sport. Coming from a swimming family, typical dinner table conversations in the Millns household revolve around swimming. Ricky's top priority as a coach is developing good people first, and good swimmers next. He's known for weaving life lessons and swimming together, as he believes that swimming is the greatest teacher of important skills for life.

Ricky will be around the pool a lot this year. When he's not coaching, he'll be training himself as he prepares for his final year with the Vikes, and completing his BA in Anthropology at UVIC. If you haven't already met him, be sure to say hello.
