Norman Ware
Athlete
1911 – 2003
Who was Norman Ware?
Norman "Norm" Ware was an Australian rules footballer in the Victorian Football League.
A scrupulously fair, clever and unusually pacy ruckman for Footscray, Ware is the only captain-coach to have won the Brownlow Medal, and is likely to remain so indefinitely, as it would be almost impossible for a captain of an AFL team to act as a coach today, and even so, playing coaches are prohibited under salary cap regulations in order to prevent wealthier clubs from circumventing the restrictions of the salary cap and salary floor.
He was recruited from Sale.
In 2001 Ware was inducted into the Australian Football Hall of Fame.
