There isn't much Matt Park hasn't achieved since arriving at Savoy Park in 2015.

He started an outstanding coaching partnership with goalkeeper Jayden Vescio in 2016, delivering the Savoys their first cup in 43 years.

Park also claimed the AWFA Star Player that year, before leading the club to the league-cup double in 2017 and 2018.

His playing career was seemingly cut short by a third ACL injury in the pre-season, but he managed to get himself back on the park and scored the match-winner against Cobram to send Myrtleford to its fifth straight cup final.

His first task as president is to find a new coach after Vescio also announced he also won't be continuing in the top job in 2020.

"I'm talking to a few people at the moment and hopefully we can announce something next week, but nothing is confirmed yet," Park said.

"We want to get something announced soon so the boys can have a bit of a run around, because they're starting to get keen."

Park said he could never have expected to have the success he did when taking on the coaching duties.

"If you had have told us when we first took over the job, we would have taken it," Park said.

"There's been plenty of good times, it's been hard work, but it's been four of the best years of my life to be honest.

"I was living in Beechworth when I first started playing for the club and now I've bought a house and live here in Myrtleford.

"I love the place and can't see myself living anywhere else at the moment."

Park replaces Zac Mirt as president, who held the position for nine years.

"I quite enjoy the management side of football and sport, so I think the time was right to step away from coaching, have a bit of a breather and look at something new," Park said.

"The president's job came up and it excited me. When something excites you, it's a good thing.

"I run my own business and I've been on the committee the last couple of years and sort of know a few of the ins and outs of what goes on at the club.

"Obviously Zac (Mirt) is one of my good mates too, so I've always got him to fall back on when I need a bit of help.

"I've got a good committee this year as well.

"I've got a few fresh ideas I'd like to implement eventually, but in general I want to continue the good work and see an increase in the junior side of things."
