Zvonko Šundovski (Macedonian: Звонко Шундовски) is a former Macedonian team handball player and a former coach of the North Macedonia National Handball Team. He was born on 7 September 1967 in Bitola, then in SFR Yugoslavia. Starting from October 2010, he served as the head coach of the Macedonia national team,[1] and since the summer of 2012 he was also in charge of Romanian top division side HCM Constanța.[2] From June 2015, he served as coach of Romanian club CSM București.
His first station as a coach was in 2003 with the club team RK Pelister, which he led to the double win of the national championship and cup. Already in 2006, Šundovski was coaching not only the men's junior national team but also the men's senior national team, whom he led in 2009 through their World Championship journey in Croatia. In the season 2008/09 Šundovski managed RK Metalurg Skopje and led the club as Macedonian champions into the EHF Champions League as well as round four of the EHF Cup Winners' Cup.[3]
As team coach of Macedonia, Šundovski achieved 5th place in the 2012 European Men's Handball Championship in Serbia.
As of January 23, 2013, Šundovski is no longer a coach of the Macedonia National Handball Team. He resigned with a statement to the press, and an official email to the Macedonian Handball Federation in which he explained his leaving from the function.
