• Hockey trophy in memory of Laura

 An eleven-year-old girl’s love of hockey will be commemorated on Friday (March 18) when a new trophy is presented at the final assembly of the term at Nottingham High School for Girls.

Laura Morgan died in July 2003, whilst on holiday in Greece, just a few weeks before she was due to transfer to the senior school.  Hockey was one of her favourite sports and she was a regular at South Nottingham club junior training sessions.

The Laura Morgan Memorial Trophy for outstanding contribution to school hockey will be presented by her mother, Lynne, who is an old-girl of the school and  a Governor.   The first recipient will be 1^st XI captain Danielle Paffard.

Laura’s sister, 18-year-old Sarah, is  the  current high school Head Girl, and was leading goalscorer for the Ist XI hockey team last year. She also plays regularly for South Nottingham Hockey Club Ladies teams.

“Hockey has played an important part in both my daughters’ lives and I know Laura would have thought it great to have her enjoyment of the game marked in this way,” said Lynne.
