Molly Hawkins

The Association is sad to announce that Molly Hawkins passed away peacefully early on Friday 6th January 2012 at the age of 93.

Molly was a stalwart of the Gloucester League for a number of years with clubs such as Strollers, and Wotton, which she ran with the invaluable help of her late husband John.

Although perhaps starting the sport later than some of her friends Molly proved that by hard work and constant training she could reach the very highest standard of play. She represented her country a number of times and had a large collection of cups and trophies. Molly was still entering, and winning, European tournaments when she was in her early 80’s.

Unfortunately Molly had not been in good health for a number of months and suffered a severe stroke just before Christmas, from which she was not able to recover.

Her funeral will take place on Tuesday, 24th January at 11:30am at Gloucester Crematorium.

Coaching/Practice Sessions

Due to the renovation of the gym, the coaching/practice sessions at The Crypt School on Saturdays are currently suspended until further notice.
