Early Years
West attended St. John Lutheran High School. He started playing football when he was 6 years old and was often known as 'Black Gold west'. This was because he was known to have been one of the best players at his junior school. At the age of 9, Zach left St. John Lutheran High school and joined The Skinners School where he stayed for 2 years before moving back. During this time, Zach became an avid swimmer and netball player due to the lack of a decent football team nearby.

Famous quotes related to early years:
“I believe that if we are to survive as a planet, we must teach this next generation to handle their own conflicts assertively and nonviolently. If in their early years our children learn to listen to all sides of the story, use their heads and then their mouths, and come up with a plan and share, then, when they become our leaders, and some of them will, they will have the tools to handle global problems and conflict.”
—Barbara Coloroso (20th century)
