To identify the compound subject and compound predicate in each sentence, you can follow these steps:

1. Identify the subject(s) of the sentence, which are the noun(s) or pronoun(s) that the sentence is about.
2. Identify the predicate(s) of the sentence, which are the verb(s) and any accompanying words or phrases that provide information about the subject(s).

Now let's go through each sentence:

1. "swimming and softball are two sports in the Olympic Games."
- Compound subject: "swimming and softball" (since there are two nouns connected by "and")
- Compound predicate: No compound predicate in this sentence.

2. "The swimmer's skill and speed made him a winner."
- Compound subject: "The swimmer's skill and speed" (since there are two noun phrases connected by "and")
- Compound predicate: No compound predicate in this sentence.

3. "The runner worked hard and succeeded."
- Compound subject: No compound subject in this sentence.
- Compound predicate: "worked hard and succeeded" (since there are two verb phrases connected by "and")

4. "She pitched a perfect game and got a medal."
- Compound subject: "She" (there is only one subject in this sentence)
- Compound predicate: "pitched a perfect game and got a medal" (since there are two verb phrases connected by "and")

5. "Her friends and family cheered for her in the stands."
- Compound subject: "Her friends and family" (since there are two noun phrases connected by "and")
- Compound predicate: "cheered for her in the stands" (since there are two verb phrases connected by "and")

So the answers are:

1. Compound subject
2. Compound subject
3. Compound predicate
4. Compound subject
5. Compound predicate
