The Junior Clubhouse is open Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from approximately 4.45pm to 6.30pm during the football season. The bar is only permitted to trade from 5pm – 6:30pm, selling beer, wine, spirits, soft drinks, water, chips & zooper doopers.  Alcohol is to be consumed within the Clubhouse and verandah.

We also have merchandise for sale.

A separate storage area at the end of the clubhouse stores our training equipment and alternate strips.

Female toilets are on the training side of the building and the male toilets are on the carpark
side.

There is some seating along the front wall and verandah of the clubhouse. Working bees
are held approx 3 times per year to keep our clubhouse and grounds maintained.

The Seniors Clubhouse is at Aitkenvale Park, Petunia Street, beside the Aitkenvale Library. Parking is available in the library carpark.

We would like to thank all of our sponsors. 

Your support is greatly appreciated by our committee, players, parents and supporters.

Our History

St Joseph’s Junior Soccer Club (SJJSC) formed in 1971, training at our present location of Gordon Park (on the Corner of Ross River Road & Balls Lane, Mundingburra).

SJJSC players originally wore green shirts and brown shorts and the training fields were mown by fathers bringing their own mowers. The club was known as Saint Joseph’s and then Saints.

In 2005 Saints formed an affiliation with Eagles Souths United Senior Soccer Club to provide players with access to a senior club to move through the age groups and divisions with. Eagles Souths United was formed from the amalgamation of Polonia (Eagles), which was the local Polish soccer club, and Souths, who were based at Cambridge Park in Vincent.

Our club colours and logos are combined from each of these clubs. Green and the Saint logo from SJJSC; Red and the Eagle logo from Polonia and Black from Souths.
