Recent history

The Morinville Jets were founded in 1977, and have enjoyed moderate success throughout their 38 years in the CJHL, but have never won the league title. The Jets hosted the 2012 CJHL All-Star Game in 2012. [1] In September 2012, recent team grad and former captain Nick McRae was killed in an ATV accident near Edson. In honour of him, the team retired McRae's former number, 11. [2] The Jets' closest geographical rival is the St. Albert Merchants, with whom they hold a fierce rivalry.

The Jets won their first league playoff championship during the 2024-25 season, going undefeated in their 3 rounds of playoffs. The Jets continued their winning ways by capturing the Alberta Jr. B Provicial Championships.
