The Meneghello Industrial Group Joondalup Wolves are excited to announce the signing of Wolves Junior Taj Gleeson ahead of the 2026 NBL1 West Season!
“Getting signed with the Wolves feels great. I’m so grateful and excited for this opportunity. This season I want to bring good energy, whilst competing hard and doing whatever is necessary to help the team. Fans can expect someone who’s going to play hard, continue improving and someone who plays winning basketball.”
Wolfpack fans got a glimpse into the future of The Pack when Taj suited up in his NBL1 debut against the Indonesian National Team last year. Taj earned his spot in the Men’s NBL1 side after a massive year playing for the U18 Boys Championship and Open Men’s WABL sides, capping off his WABL Season by being named the Wolfpack 2025 Male WABL Player of the Year. Playing for the U18 Champs side, Taj averaged 25.5 points per game across his 17 appearances.
Wolves fans will be excited to see Taj grow as part of our NBL1 side during the coming NBL1 West Season.
Men’s Head Coach Lucas Allen spoke on the importance of signing Taj ahead of the 2026 season.
“We’re really excited to bring Taj into the NBL1 program. He’s a Wolves junior who plays with poise well beyond his years. The group trusts him because of the way he approaches the game — focused, tough, and team‑first. You can tell he’s a young hooper getting his first crack at this level, and that’s what makes him special.”
Taj is our eleventh Men’s player signed ahead of the 2026 NBL1 West Season. To watch Taj during the 2026 NBL1 West Season, you can purchase your membership here.
