Our Teams

Paris Joannides takes charge of our Youth League Women’s team for the first time in 2026.

Paris moves into the role after working as an assistant coach for the club’s senior women’s team over the past two seasons and replaces Danni Fidge, who stepped down in August 2025.

“I can’t wait for the season ahead and (to) continue building on the great work that previous coaches have done with this group,” he said.

“My focus is not only on helping this team compete and develop, but also on creating a strong pathway into the Senior Women’s program.”

Fraser Kennedy is back for his fourth season as head coach of our Youth League Men.

Fraser led Camberwell to a 12-10 record in regular season play last season and into the YLM 1 finals. The Dragons’ campaign ended with a loss to eventual champion Pakenham in the playoffs.

Fraser is joined on the sidelines again by Conor Mathews, who returns for his third season as assistant coach.

Mark Jeffers will coach our Big V Division 1 Women’s team in 2026.

Mark is a former head coach of our senior men’s team and replaces Cara Jeffers, who stepped down after leading the senior women for the past two seasons.

“I am incredibly fortunate to get this opportunity to coach our Division 1 Women,” Mark said. “I want to acknowledge the hard work Cara has done in building the foundations of this team and program over the past two seasons, and I look forward to building on the structure she has created.”

The Dragons finished with a 9-9 record in 2025.

Shawn King is back for his second season as the head coach of our Championship Men’s team.

Shawn led Camberwell to a 9-13 in regular season play in 2025 and is joined on the bench by assistant coaches Christian Peachman and Naoum Lazis.

Camberwell made a slow start to its 2025 campaign before putting together a series of impressive performances in the second half of the season – its results featuring an 89-86 home win against highly rated Hume City at Boroondara Sports Complex in Round 13.
