Rest in peace, taken far too soon – Beth Branson
It is with shock and great sadness that we have learned of the death of Beth Branson. Beth is an active member of our Women’s team.
Beth has been a member of our Women’s team for many years and graduated through our girls and youth sections. She has been taken far too early at the age of 19 and the situation teaches us how unjust some situations are.
Geoff Sluman Director of Rugby for Albion said, this is such incredibly sad news, I would regularly see Beth at the Womens games at Womens training and generally in and around the club house. She was always a lovely person and great team member and club person. She always walked around the place with a smile on her face even when, or I should say especially when, she was active on the rugby pitch with her team mates. My condolences go to Beth’s family and friends.
Sophie Phillips the Womens team Player coach said Beth was a great player and a great friend to all at the club, whose bubbly personality rubbed off on everyone and would light up any room. I would like to extend our condolences as a team to Beth’s family and friends.
Geoff added, I know a lot of the Women’s team and leadership group want to pay tribute to Beth, but they are just unable too at the moment as the shock is deep and the pain raw, but they will when the time is right.
For now, on behalf of myself, on behalf of Bridgwater & Albion RFC and especially on behalf of the Women’s section and all of Beth’s many friends at the club we offer our sincere condolences to Beth’s Dad Ben, Mum Amy and brother, Joe and all of Beth’s family.
