IMX and IMR Certficates
IMX and IMR is a motivational program, through USA Swimming, that allows swimmers across the nation to compare themselves to the thousands of other athletes in their age group. All your swimmer must do is swim a combination of events, at least one time per season, and USA Swimming automatically gives you your ranking.
