Jay Mohan, the 35-year-old Secretary of the Wyndham Jags Cricket Club (WJCC), clearly never takes his eye off the ball. “My aim is to develop and promote multicultural, recreational and social activities among different groups and communities,” says Mohan, on his vision for Wyndham.
Born in India, and a graduate of management studies, after working four years in the UK, in 2007, Jay migrated to Australia.
Currently working for a leading logistics company in Melbourne, Jay is also an active member of a social community group in Wyndham (WMCG) and a founding member of the WJCC, one of the fastest growing cricket clubs in Australia. He was instrumental in starting a cricket tournament—Jags Premier League—to cater to the demand in Wyndham for affordable and accessible opportunities for different communities. He is also an active participant in organising breakfast club in schools around Wyndham.
He is now working on promoting the world’s biggest diverse community sports activity in Melbourne with the help of Wyndham city council and Cricket Victoria.
Jay lives in Wyndham with his wife Smitha and daughter Veda.

Dear Reader,The Indian Sun is an independent organisation committed to community journalism. We have, through the years, been able to reach a wide audience especially with the growth of social media, where we also have a strong presence. With platforms such as YouTube videos, we have been able to engage in different forms of storytelling. However, the past few years, like many media organisations around the world, it has not been an easy path. We have a greater challenge. We believe community journalism is very important for a multicultural country like Australia. We’re not able to do everything, but we aim for some of the most interesting stories and journalism of quality. We call upon readers like you to support us and make any contribution. Do make a DONATION NOW so we can continue with the volume and quality journalism that we are able to practice.
Thank you for your support.
Best wishes,
