Jaroslav Just was born as the second son of the Prague merchant Eduard Just (1845–1911) and his wife Hana, née Wagner. Like his older brother Eduard (b. 1881), Jaroslvav was involved in sport from childhood, especially lawn tennis. He graduated from the Czech Technical University in Prague, where he became a teaching assistant and, after defending his thesis, a lecturer.

Jarsolav Just was among the first generation of players to grow up playing lawn tennis at the First Czech Lawn Tennis Club in Prague, whose exact address was Prague 7, Štvanice. Amongst other achievements, he was a member of the Austro-Hungarian Olympic tennis team at the 1912 Summer Olympics in Stockholm. He also represented Czechoslovakia at the 1920 Summer Olympics in Antwerp.
Between 1921 and 1928, Jaroslav Just held the position of president of the First Czech Tennis Club. He was succeeded in this role by his brother, Dr Eduard Just, who was a lawyer by profession.
