Camberwell Dragons today announced two significant additions to our 2026 coaching line-up, with Shawn King and Al McAughtry taking on key roles.

King, our current Big V Championship Men's team coach, has begun work as Director of Coaching (DOC) of the club's junior girls program, while McAughtry (right of graphic) has brought a wealth of Australian and international experience to the newly created position of Coaching Mentor.

Al's impressive body of work includes assistant coaching jobs with junior national teams and head coaching roles in the South East Australian Basketball League (SEABL), the New Zealand Basketball League (NZBL) and with Victorian state boys and girls teams.

Shawn took charge of the Dragons Championship Men's team in 2025 and is very well known across the state for his achievements at junior and senior levels. He brings extensive DOC experience to the junior girls program.

"I'm excited to get back into it and to start work with the great coaches we have here at Camberwell," he said. "I want us to continue to get better as a club, and I'm looking forward to working with our coaches and players to help them get to where they want to go."

Shawn will continue his work with Camberwell's Big V Senior Men's program this season. His Dragons open their 2026 Big V regular season campaign against Hume City at Balwyn High School on March 29.
