John McKeown (born 21 April 1981) is a former professional footballer who is currently the manager of Cumnock Juniors in the Scottish Junior Football Association, West Region. He has played for several clubs in the Scottish Football League.
Released by Ipswich Town as a teenager, McKeown made his league debut for Ayr United in a First Division game against Falkirk in May 2000. He later played for Dumbarton, Cowdenbeath and Stenhousemuir and had a spell at Junior level with Cumnock Juniors.
McKeown was forced to retire as a professional player at the age of twenty-seven due to problems with an arthritic hip. He re-entered the game as player-coach of Wishaw Juniors in the summer of 2011, and was appointed manager of the club in October that year, eventually leading the club to their first promotion in thirty-eight years in 2014.
In October 2014, McKeown was announced as the new manager of Cumnock Juniors.
