Herzl Fritzner (Hebrew: הרצל פריצנר) was an Israeli footballer and manager, who played for Maccabi Rehovot, Maccabi Tel Aviv, Hapoel Tel Aviv and Hapoel Ramat Gan and coached Maccabi Ramat Amidar and Hapoel Ramat Gan.
Fritzner was born in Kiev in 1919 and moved with his family to the Netherlands when he was 5. As a teenager, Fritzner was sent to a boarding school in Düsseldorf, where he played for the local Maccabi club. In 1935, Fritzner immigrated to Palestine on his own, with the Youth Aliyah organization and settled at Kibbutz Na'an. While at the Kibbutz, Fritzner represented the local Hapoel club in athletics, with his main event being the shot put, in which he set a Hapoel junior record of 11.39 m in 1937.
In 1938, Fritzner moved to Rehovot, where he worked in the Jewish Settlement Police and joined the local Maccabi club. While continuing to compete in Athletics, exceling in shot put and javelin throw, Fritzner started playing football with Maccabi Rehovot in Liga Bet. As a member of the settlement police, Fritzner was drafted into the regional police football team, Sarona Police, which competed and won the Settlement Police Cup. The police team also competed, along with other Maccabi clubs, in the Maccabi Ersatz League, and as the police team was disbanded, Fritzner joined Maccabi Tel Aviv.
