Tony Mitchell - loves a challenge

Tony Mitchell - Club Manager 

Tony was born and lived in the Outer Eastern suburbs of Melbourne, where he played football and cricket both locally and had a short, but not so glorious short career with Essendon under 19’s.

Tony has now spent the past 25 years in football administration via the Yarra Valley Mountain District Football League, a former VCFL Vice President and current Chair of AFL Outer East, all on a volunteer basis.

He spent most of his working career with the NAB in Senior Management roles in Melbourne, also operating his own businesses. Over the past 7 years he has been involved in the greyhound industry with a short stint maintaining and developing synthetic tracks within the Thoroughbred industry, during 2019.

Tony was appointed as CEO at Cranbourne Greyhound Racing Club in January 2015, then appointed to GRV as Clubs and Infrastructure Manager in July 2017. In March 2020 he was appointed General Manager of Warragul Greyhound Racing Club where he is looking forward to new industry challenges.
