About Us

St Joseph’s Jaguars is a small junior basketball club located in Mernda that was established in 2017 with only four teams and have now grown to over 100 players. We are a community-based basketball club and although we have a strong affiliation with St Joseph’s School Mernda, many of our players are from Mernda, Doreen and the surrounding area and everyone is welcome. Our teams plays in the Diamond Valley Basketball Association.

Our teams range from Under 8’s to Under 19’s and we pride ourselves in developing the skills of all our players with a focus on teamwork, good sportsmanship and ensuring they have fun whilst learning new skills. 

Our aim is to further the sense of belonging within the local communities of Mernda and Doreen. Our goal is to remain cost effective to allow for greater participation and to enable all children the opportunity to play basketball.

We feel extremely fortunate to be a part of the wonderful community of St Joseph’s School, Mernda who continue to support and promote our club and is the home of the St Joseph’s Jaguars Basketball Club.

We are very grateful to our sponsor’s especially our major sponsor’s Tymaline Building Services and Ray White Mernda for their continued support, which plays a vital role in the success and continued growth of our basketball club.

Our club is run and supported by dedicated volunteers including committee members, coaches and team managers who work hard to continue to strengthen our players skills and help our club to thrive.
