FC Bulleen Lions extends its deepest condolences to the Pampanella Family following the passing of our U21’s Metropolitan coach Enzo Pampanella.
Enzo has coached at Bulleen for 3 seasons and just completed his fifteenth straight season as a coach of young men. He will be remembered as a true gentleman, a friend and amazing mentor to our U21 boys who are devastated by his passing. Enzo loved coaching football and was passionate about the importance of keeping our young people in sport and investing time in one another.
People like Enzo are irreplaceable, they leave a lasting legacy on everyone around them and his passing is a tremendous loss to our football community.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Pampanella family during this difficult time, particularly Enzo’s loving wife, Joanne, and his two adored sons, Josh and James. We extend our heartfelt condolences to them and to all of Enzo’s family and friends.
Funeral details are Friday 30th October 2026 at 11:00am, St Luke’s Parish Lalor - 1A David St, Lalor. Rosary followed by Mass.
Vale Enzo Pampanella
