It’s with sadness and a heavy heart that we mourn the sudden passing of one of London’s greatest female Stalwart in Basketball on 30/09/2021. Andrea worked tirelessly as a coach for
the development of the ‘Game’ from Grassroots to National/BBL level and Europe with London Lions. Many clubs relied on her as a ‘Statistician’ in the NBL, WBBL, BBL across London, Herts and Kent regions plus BE National Championships.
Always had a smile for fellow coaches, officials, players, supporters and media. Andrea served on the London RMC and created valued time to help local and national teams with her other passion of Refereeing and Table Officiating whilst mentoring young and new officials.
“A great loss to our sport in all aspects of the game. I will treasure great memories of her basketball career and my last liaison with her on Tuesday 28/09/21.
May she rest in peace. Sincere condolences to her family, who request we keep them in prayer as they process this shock.
Respectfully With Great Sadness….”
Patricia Fairclough OBE
London RMC Chairperson
