JX Program

JX stands for Junior Excellence! The JX recognises, rewards and encourages children aged from 9 to 13 years who accomplish times set by Swimming Australia.

The program also recognises the achievements of SWD and OWS children.

There are four levels of achievement: Gold, Silver, Bronze and Green.

Swimmers who qualify for the JX will receive the following recognition and rewards:
a special JX cap (9-10 years) or a special JX shirt (11-13 years)
a certificate of achievement signed by the National Youth Coach and Grant Hackett
a motivational poster featuring elite Australian swimmers
publication of their name on the Swimming Australia website
where possible, an invitation to forums or clinics, with presentations by elite swimmers and coaches and other leading sports professionals.

Only times that are swum at Qualifying Meets can be used for the JX.

Swimming Queensland usually send to us all the JX caps, shirts and other material for our JX qualifiers in time for our Annual Award Presentations in May. Swimmers selected in State or National development squads are not eligible for the JX.

There are also some fantastic prizes available for Queensland JX kids. When the list of the JX qualifiers is finalised in April, all Queensland swimmers on the list will have the chance to win great prizes from Speedo. 80 winners will be drawn from the Gold, Silver, Bronze and Green groups of swimmers (20 from each group).

PLUS - Each month there is a fantastic Macca's towel to be won by a lucky JX qualifier.

Congratulations to our JX Award Winners for 2010/2011
