History edit

 
Gungahlin Enclosed Oval - home of the Jets

The Gungahlin Jets were established in 1981 and entered the Monaro AFL division 2 competition in 1982.[2] The club won the MAFL division 2 premiership in their first season.

In 2014, the Liberal government withdrew a $66,000 grant for infrastructure funding provided by the previous Labor government, sparking a controversy. The club was burgled twice in a month; drinks and water bottles intended for fundraising were stolen, and on the second occasion, a television.[3]

The club anticipates fielding 500 players across senior, junior and women's divisions in the 2024 season.
