Swimmer Opportunities

Phoenix Foundation JX Clinic

 

Swimming Northern Territory is pleased to offer, as part of the 2025 Country Swimming Championships, an opportunity for swimmers aged 9-13yrs to take part in a Phoenix Foundation JX clinic with a huge name in Australian swimming leading the session. The Phoenix Foundation is the returning season sponsor of Swimming Australia's JX program and it's great to have them supporting grass roots swimming yet again.

 

The Junior Excellence Program was established in 2007 to recognise, reward and incentivise junior swimmers who are on part of their swimming journey, learning and refining as they develop into senior swimmers. Each year Swimming Australia releases the JX criteria and standards for the forthcoming season which swimmers, parents and coaches can use as targets throughout the year.

Swimmers aged from 9 to 13 years, who accomplish times set by Swimming Australia, qualify at gold, silver, bronze or blue standard, depending on their best performance/s during the season.

All ‘approved’ swim meet results are loaded into the Swimming Australia’s Swim Central and used as results towards an overall award for each individual swimmer. At the end of the qualification period, Swimming Australia will publish the JX results on the website.

​

The 2025 Country Swimming Championships JX Clinic will take place at Parap Pool over the course of Thursday 26th September. Further information is available on the link below and the opportunity to register for the clinic will be available from the 1st August 2025.
