So many fond memories of times together, navigating Mum stuff, from 11 plus revision sessions with Hollie and Molly, to sideline coaching chit chat, weekends away watching netball together and so much respect watching you coach and teach our girls. You’ve been such a positive inspiration to them. We are all going to miss you so much and you will always be on our hearts. Chris, Harrison and Hollie we are here for you always xxxx

Sarah was my netball coach at cubs, pe teacher and inspiration. She was the one that got me into netball and set me up for my future in sport. I will always remember her sarcastic laugh at school netball on a Tuesday lunch time when we are complaining about the non- existent umpiring. I’ll always remember Mrs baker cheering miss on after her attempt of beating Hollie at the bleep test. I’ll miss her forever ❤️

Sarah has coached me netball since I was very young and quickly became somebody I looked up to in many ways. Whether it was making fun of my patchy tan, or giving me stick for missing a shot, she always found a way to make me laugh at training. I remember how excited me and my team were on a Sunday morning when we heard that Sarah would be watching our game because all we wanted to do was impress her. Her opinion meant the world to us all and i’m so glad to have had the privilege to have been taught by sarah. She’ll be missed by so many 💞💞

Sarah and I first met on school coach trip to Light Water Valley back in 2019, I was still new to school as a staff member and she made me feel unbelievably welcome. We sat and chatted the whole way back to school. After that we used to share break duties during the crazy Covid times and would often chat about life , work and generally anything from opposite sides of the 2 metre distance line. A moment of human contact and friendship at a time when we were all so isolated. Over the last year she ended up sitting on the desk opposite from me in Sixth Form. We always got along and she always was kind, friendly and approachable. I'll miss her brilliant humour, her plain speaking and all the grief she would give to Jamie Downing in banter. Sarah will very much not be forgotten. My heartfelt condolences to Chris, Hollie and Harrison all of whom are in my thoughts.

Sarah, I’ll never forgot that drunken night on the tube in Barcelona. How we got back to the hotel is beyond me. We laughed so much that night and that’s when we bonded. Who would have known that years later you’d be writing me caring notes to find in your kitchen as I cleaned your home telling me what I needed to hear. May you forever be at peace 🫶🏻

Sarah was deeply loved and an amazing big sister. Fond memories of growing up link to Sarah and her family. Such an idol to look up to regarding netball. Her kindness and presence touched those around her, and she will be dearly missed.

Sarah was my netball coach whilst at Oakbank from years 7-13. She was an amazing coach and really made a difference. I’ll never forget when she took us to Newcastle for a tournament and also when we went to Austria skiing. Both Sarah and Chris had a big influence on me throughout my time at Oakbank. Sending love to all Sarah’s family. RIP xx

Although I didnt know Sarah that well, I have fond memories of working with her at Oakbank. I know she will be much missed by Chris, Harrison and Holly, who Sarah lives on in always, and all that knew her.

I will always remember the happy times with Sarah. She was an incredible woman who inspired lots of young children the importance of sport & physical activity. Those GCSE PE lessons were the best, she was my favourite teacher by far, she made her lessons fun and exciting with students enjoying them 🥰 then I got the privilege of working with her for many years! The best times at Oakbank. Love you Sarah 🩷 RIP xxx

She loved her family so incredibly much, she was so kind and funny and a force to be reckoned with on the court! Sarah will be missed so much by so many xx
