2024 AUSTRALIAN SPEEDWAY AWARDS - MARSHAL VOLUNTEER OF THE YEAR - Wangaratta's Ken Mankey

Ken Mankey’s passion for speedway is unquestionable. But what sets him apart is his willingness to go beyond his borders as President of Wangaratta City Speedway to share his passion throughout country Victoria, at venues like Nyora, Mt Beauty, Alexandra and Rushworth.

Ken spends untold hours travelling the region often with his faithful family in tow, filling the role as the SSA Production sedan rep, qualified Scrutineer, respected race director or chief steward, sacrificing his own racing in the mission to improve the sport across the state and is a new member of the Speedway Sedans Australia Board.

“Kenno” is a culture creator, taking volunteers on the journey with him inspiring them to see a clear vision of a better future for the sport, while intentionally pouring water on unhealthy inter-club rivalry, most exemplified by his heartfelt gesture when Wahgunyah Speedway was devastated by floods, facilitating their event to run at Wangaratta, along with organizing a raffle that raised over $17,000 for the Corowa Rutherglen Motorsports Club.

Kennth Mankey is quite literally one in a million, and there is a long line of the speedway community that would happily attest to his inspirational leadership, that has the power to usher in a new era and attitude to volunteering in speedway that is rapidly producing a unity in the sport that has rarely been seen in the nation.
