Cameron Joyce

Cameron Joyce (born 1980) is an Australian rules football coach. He currently coaches the Gold Coast Suns in the AFL Women's (AFLW).

Joyce was born in Perth, Western Australia in 1980. His father, Alan, was a professional Australian rules footballer who played for Hawthorn in the 1960s and coached the Hawks to a pair of VFL/AFL premierships in 1988 and 1991. Joyce moved with his family to Melbourne at a young age when his father decided to pursue VFL coaching opportunities, which also included a stint as the head coach of the Western Bulldogs.

Joyce played junior football for Glen Iris as well as Oakleigh and although he was invited to train with Hawthorn during their 1998 pre-season, he was not selected by the Hawks. Following high school graduation, Joyce turned his attention to an off-field role when Richmond handed him a video analysis position at the club, and he was promoted to a football administration assistant role the following year. Joyce accepted similar roles with North Melbourne and West Coast in the following years before being given his big break in 2008 when he was appointed the list manager of North Melbourne. Joyce was appointed the General Manager of Football at North Melbourne in 2016 and held that position for three years.

Following his administrative career, Joyce accepted a coaching and development role with AFL Tasmania in October 2019.

Joyce was appointed the head coach of the Gold Coast Suns women's team on 2 June 2021. He became the first Gold Coast coach to secure back-to-back AFLW wins when his team defeated West Coast and Richmond in rounds 2 and 3 of his first season as head coach.
