About East Malvern Junior Football Club
Origins and Founding
The East Malvern Junior Football Club (EMJFC), known as the Knights, has roots stretching back to 1927, when junior teams first played within the East Malvern Football Club (EMFC, known as the Blue Knights). The junior teams competed within the broader EMFC structure, fielding age groups from Under-9s to Under-14s. After the senior club folded in 1985 due to financial difficulties, following 57 years in operation, the future of junior football in East Malvern was uncertain. A new EMJFC Committee met for the first time on 17 March 1986 and the club was formally incorporated on 2 July 1986 with four junior teams entered in the Waverley Junior Football Association (WJFA). Peter Duncan was elected the club's first president.


Club History
From its 1986 re-founding with just four teams, the Knights have grown into one of the larger junior football clubs in Melbourne's south-eastern suburbs. By 2011 the club celebrated 25 years and fielded its highest-ever team count of 24 teams - 23 boys and 1 Youth Girls - setting a record 6 Under-9 sides in that season. Following the cessation of the Waverley Junior Football Association at the end of 2008, the Knights transitioned to the Moorabbin Saints Junior Football League (MSJFL) for boys competition, while Youth Girls teams compete in the Yarra Junior Football League.
In 2025 the club had 795 players representing the Knights across 38 teams, from Under-8s through to Youth Girls. The club heads into its 2026 season with pre-season training already underway for older age groups, continuing its tradition as a cornerstone junior sporting institution in the East Malvern community.


Home Ground
The Knights play their home games at DW Lucas Reserve, Dunlop Street, East Malvern, located adjacent to Darling Station on the Glen Waverley/Alamein rail lines. The ground and clubhouse are shared with the East Malvern Football Netball Club (seniors) and the East Malvern Tooronga Cricket Club, making it a genuine multi-sport community hub. The club also uses Basil Reserve, Stanley Grose Reserve, and Gardiner Reserve (adjacent to Gardiner Station) as additional grounds for its 38 teams throughout the season.


Community and Programs
EMJFC is conducted entirely on a volunteer basis by parents and friends of the club. Boys programs run from Under-8s to Under-17s in the MSJFL competition, while youth girls compete in the Yarra Junior Football League. The club draws players from East Malvern, Malvern East, Glen Iris, Ashburton, and surrounding inner south-eastern Melbourne suburbs. With 38 teams and nearly 800 registered players in 2025, EMJFC is a prominent community club that provides football opportunities to hundreds of local children each season.
