Qualifying Times

An important aspect to competitive swimming is establishing personal goal times together with your coach. The qualifying times below are an excellent tool and guide towards understanding how close you may be to 'making' Country Championship, JX (Junior Excellence), National Age and Multiclass times. The club also has additional resources to help you better understand if your times are progressing towards making age group finals in any of these championship meets by looking at previous finals results. By carefully recording your 'PB's' (Personal Best Times) and comparing them to some of the times below you will understand how close you are to improving the competitiveness of your perfomance. You never know - you may only be .5 of a second away from establishing a new age group record in your favourite stroke!

Qualifying TImes

Swimming SA have an annual review of the qualification standards necessary to compete in Division 2, Division 1 and all relevant Championships level meets. Please note that no qualifying standards are necessary when competing at a club event or endorsed open carnival. These are participation level meets.

Junior Excellence Program

Picture
The JX Program was established in 2007 to recognise, reward and incentivise junior swimmers who are on a key 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 to as targets throughout the year.
 
All ‘approved’ swim meet results are loaded into the Swimming Australia ClubLANE system 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 and update each swimmers MyLANE avatar with a unique JX avatar.
 
Swimming Australia rewards qualifying JX swimmers not only with recognition on MyLANE and the website but also sends out a JX pack to each qualifying swimmer which includes a variety of goodies including a certificate and swimming cap.
