Although Valletta-born Jason Galea Lucas never played football, he always bore a great passion for Valletta F.C.
Jason started following Valletta F.C. more closely after Valletta won the five Cups in the 1998/99 season. He attended every training session of the team.
During the 2001 season, Jason was approached by Jean Pierre Baldacchino who was then assisting Tony Caruana, the Kit Manager, to help them with the team.

In May 2010 Jason was appointed to Assistant Trainer. He also worked with the previous Team Managers of the club, namely, Mario Muscat, Nicky Saliba and Jesmond Zammit.
Jason formed part of the technical staff when Valletta F.C. won two championships (2007/08, 2010/11), the FA Trophy (2009/10), three times the Super Cup (2008, 2010, 2011), the National League 100 Anniversary Cup (2009/10) and Bet Fair Cup (2008).
