Joshua Jolly is a BMX racer who was awarded a Tier 3 Scholarship within the Sport Australia Hall of Fame Scholarship and Mentoring Program.
Josh was born in Ballarat, Victoria in 2006 and has been racing BMX since 2008. He was just 2 years old when he first took to the BMX track and he has not been off a bicycle since.
Racing for almost 16 years & claiming his first National Champion title at just 9 years old, Josh has won gold at 10 National Championships since then. Josh has won too many State & National series rounds to count over the years and is still pursuing his dream of racing BMX at the highest level, aiming to represent his country in the next two Olympic Games.
He is the current men’s Junior Elite World Champion & Australian National Champion, and is aiming for gold in the 2028 & 2032 Olympic Games.
“It is an honour to receive a SAHOF scholarship, it makes me happy to be a part of the very lucky few that receive a Sport Australia Hall of Fame scholarship. This is pretty special & inspires me to be the best athlete that I can” – Josh Jolly on being selected as a 2025 Scholarship Holder
