It is with great sadness that we announce the death of former Ladies’ 3rd XI and junior coach, Paul Goodridge.

Following a cardiac arrest in February, Paul had been recovering from a hypoxic brain injury at a specialist neuro rehabilitation centre in Norwich.  Although he had made good progress, Paul passed away peacefully in his sleep on Tuesday, 20th June.

There will be a Celebration of Life for Paul at 3:30pm on Wednesday, 2nd August at Chelmsford Crematorium.  Those wishing to attend may wear blue, as it was Paul’s favourite colour and he was a fan of Chelsea FC.

Family flowers only.  Donations to Essex Air Ambulance please.

The thoughts of all at Chelmsford HC are with Paul’s wife, Lee, children, Georgia and Aaron, and other members of his family.
