About Gungahlin Jets Football Club
Origins and Founding
The Gungahlin Jets were established in 1981 by Graham "Strup" Mumme as the East Canberra Australian Football Club. The club entered the Monaro Australian Football League (MAFL) Division 2 competition in 1982 under inaugural president Peter Lennox, with Vince O'Donnell as captain-coach and Graham Bonnett as team manager. Their first game was played on 1 April 1982 against St Edmunds. Despite being considered underdogs, the club won the Grand Final in that debut season, defeating Royal Military College - Duntroon (RMC) by 13 points. In 1996, the club was renamed to the Gungahlin Jets, reflecting its adopted home in Canberra's rapidly developing northern district. The club formally affiliated netball teams in 2017, becoming the Gungahlin Jets Australian Football and Netball Club.
Club History
The Jets have won eight premierships across two competitions. In the Monaro AFL, they won Division 2 titles in 1982, 1987, 1988, 1989, and 1994, and were minor premiers in 1987, 1989, 1990, and 1994. After the competition evolved into AFL Canberra, the club won Division 3 premierships in 2006, 2007, and 2008. The club introduced its first senior women's team - the Jetettes - in 2008, coached by Bec Goddard, reaching the Grand Final in their debut season. In 2016, the First Grade Women's team won the premiership. The junior football club was established separately in 2000 and amalgamated with the senior club in 2009, creating a pathway from Auskick through to seniors. By 2024, the club anticipated fielding 500 players across all grades. AFL player Jack Steele - who went on to play for Greater Western Sydney, St Kilda, and Melbourne - came through the Gungahlin Jets before making it to the highest level.
Home Ground
The Jets play senior home games at Gungahlin Enclosed Oval and field junior and women's teams at Amaroo Oval, with netball teams based at Lyneham Netball Centre. The club's rooms - known as "the Hangar" - are located at Amaroo Oval and were completed in 2013, with the facility first used in the 2014 season. The Hangar was built after the club secured government funding and represents a significant infrastructure investment for a suburban club. The Gungahlin Enclosed Oval is a shared venue in the Gungahlin district, also used by rugby union, rugby league, and soccer clubs.
Community and Programs
The Jets run a full-spectrum program from Auskick and AuskickPro through to senior competition. Their inclusion-focused Shooting Stars all-inclusion netball team, launched in 2019, won the Inclusive Community Award and the Minister for Sport and Recreation's Award for Inclusion at the 2020 CBR Sport Awards. The club introduced a Second Grade Women's Football team and a Division One Netball team in 2021. It operates under core values of respect, commitment, selflessness, professionalism, and inclusivity. In 2014, the club made national news when the Liberal government withdrew a $66,000 infrastructure grant provided under the previous Labor government, and the club was subsequently burgled twice in a single month.
Gungahlin
Gungahlin is a district in the Australian Capital Territory situated 10 kilometres north of Canberra City. One of Australia's fastest-growing regions, its population grew from 23,466 in 2001 to 87,682 at the 2021 Census - a near-fourfold increase in two decades. The district was officially launched as Canberra's fourth town by the ACT Chief Minister in October 1991, when its population was just 389. The name "Gungahlin" is an Aboriginal word meaning either "white man's house" or "little rocky hill," derived from the Ngunnawal language of the district's traditional custodians. The suburb is served by Canberra's light rail network, with the Gungahlin Town Centre terminus on Hibberson Street linking directly to Civic via the Northbourne Avenue corridor since April 2019.
The Jets compete in AFL Canberra and call Gungahlin Enclosed Oval and Amaroo Oval home. Visit the club website for more information and follow them on Facebook for news and match day updates.

-

💡 Tips & Tricks
-
Single Weak Spot: Some players cut only one slit to save and display the torn banner—repair later with clear tape on the reverse.
-
Logo Preservation: Position your slit to one side of the mascot or logo so your club’s emblem stays intact and can be retained afterwards for display.
