JX Awards

The hard work and dedication of junior swimmers is recognized not only by our club but by Swimming Victoria who, in conjunction with Swimming Australia co-ordinates the Junior Excellence Program (JX) This program recognises, rewards and encourages junior swimmers who, through their development of aquatic skills & fitness achieve a high standard of swimming excellence.

Under the program swimmers aged from 9 to 13 years who accomplish times set by Swimming Australia qualify at Gold Star, Gold, Silver, Bronze or Green standards depending on their best performances during the season.  Qualifiers receive special recognition by way of a certificate of achievement and a cap or t-shirt.
