WESTERN Region Youth Coach of the Year John Szanyi from Altona Juniors has been shortlisted for the prestigious State Coach of the Year Award.
John is one of four finialists from Victoria to be nominated for the award, with the winner set to be announced at an AFL Victoria Gala Dinner at Docklands on November 3.
John is joined by coaches from Beaconsfield, Moe and Melton as the finalists within the Youth age bracket.
John’s ability to engage his players away from the field and to build a strong and positive culture held him in high regard.
In 2017, John coached Altona's Under-17 team to a premiership. The Vikings were undefeated all season.
We wish John all the best!
