Cory Young (born 6 March 1971) is a former Australian rules footballer who played for Richmond and West Coast in the Victorian/Australian Football League (VFL/AFL).
In two seasons at Richmond, Young only managed six games and spent the rest of his time in the reserves. He was drafted by West Coast in 1991 but again struggled to break into the seniors. Young made just one appearance, a win over Essendon at Windy Hill mid-season and he had just three disposals but kicked a goal.
After being delisted, he played in the Victorian Football Association. He was captain of the Oakleigh Football Club in 1994 and won the J. J. Liston Trophy that season, the club's final season before becoming a feeder club for Springvale. He also played briefly with Frankston.[1]
