Timeline

2021

In 2021, Michał Zichlarz wrote a biography about Żywotko titled Stefan Żywotko. Ze Lwowa po mistrzostwo Afryki.

2020

Żywotko turned 100 in January 2020. His wife died shortly before his 100th birthday, at the age of 94; she was also from Lwów.

1991

In 1991, although JS Kabylie offered Żywotko another contract, he decided that after 14 years in Algeria, and at his advanced age of 71, it was time for him to retire, and he returned to Szczecin, Poland.

1986

During his time with the club, he won the Algerian League title seven times, the Algerian Cup once in 1986 and the African Cup Of Champions Clubs twice, in 1981 and 1990. Under Żywotko's management, JS Kabylie became the top club in Africa at the time, and remains the most successful club in Algeria. Żywotko's success in Algeria made him the most successful Polish manager who worked outside of Poland. He has been described as "one of the most influential coaches in Algerian football."

1977

In 1977, Żywotko was appointed manager of Algerian club JS Kabylie. He knew little of Algeria at the time, so he selected Mahieddine Khalef to co-manage the team with him. Facing ethnic tensions in Algeria, Żywotko mainly chose players from the local Kabyle people who would be loyal to their local club. He initially faced distrust from the players and local journalists, but he won them over with success.

1976

After he left Pogoń, Żywotko returned to Arkonia, and then from there he moved to Warta Poznań. At Warta, Żywotko conflicted with a director who wanted his son to manage the club; rather than prolong the conflict, Żywotko resigned his position. From there, Żywotko moved to Arka Gdynia thanks to the influence of Bogdan Maślanka, who had played under Żywotko at Pogoń Szczecin; Maślanka became Żywotko's assistant, and under their leadership Arka was promoted to the first division in 1976. At Arka, Żywotko trained Janusz Kupcewicz, who would play for Poland national football team at the 1978 and 1982 FIFA World Cups, finishing third in 1982.

1961

While still playing with Gwardia, Żywotko was given the opportunity to train the junior teams. Then, the senior team needed a manager and Żywotko took over, and under his management Gwardia was promoted to the first division in 1961. However, an act was passed that stated that a coach could not be paid if they had previously played full-time for the team; this act banned Gwardia from paying Żywotko. Such being the case, Żywotko switched to local rival Pogoń Szczecin; he managed them for four and a half years, which as of 2022 was the longest managerial tenure of any Pogoń manager. Żywotko quickly instituted changes, telling older players to retire, replacing them with younger players. Under Żywotko, Pogoń was promoted to the first division in 1966.

1920

Stefan Żywotko ([ˈstɛ.fan ˈʐɨ.vɔt.ko]; 9 January 1920 – 10 February 2022) was a Polish football coach. He spent his entire coaching career in Poland and Algeria. His fourteen-year tenure as manager of JS Kabylie led to seven Algerian league titles, two African Cup of Champions titles, and a reputation as one of the greatest Polish/Algerian football managers.

Żywotko was born on 9 January 1920, in Zniesienie, which was then a suburb of Lwów in the Second Polish Republic, shortly following Polish independence. Near the end of World War II, he left Lwów to join the 4th Reserve Cavalry Regiment in Hrubieszów. When the war ended, his unit moved first to Warsaw, and then to Koszalin for demobilization. When Lwów was assigned to the Ukrainian SSR at the end of the war, Żywotko found himself homeless, and eventually settled in Szczecin, where he was joined by his parents. In Szczecin, Żywotko lived in a business flat, while working as a manager in a cold meat factory.
