Subject: Sam Yarwood Author: Comms Team [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: "Thu, Apr 07 2011, 12:17:13 GMT" Late yesterday the club received the very tragic news that former Moseley Colt Sam Yarwood has died. Sam, 22, was on a trip with a friend in the lake district and got into difficulty whilst canoeing on Ullswater yesterday morning. The club has expressed it’s deep condolences to Sam’s family.

[> Subject: So sad Author: Louise Bailey and family [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: "Thu, Apr 07 2011, 12:50:25 GMT" So sad about this, me and my dad watched Sam play many times for the colts and always said what a great player he was and he had lots of potential. Our thoughts are with his family at this difficult time. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> Subject: Sam Author: Simon Bartlett [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: "Thu, Apr 07 2011, 13:17:40 GMT" Really, really sad. I have spoken to a few lads who played with Sam and we are all equally shocked and saddened at this horrific news. I am glad that the club has reacted to this so quickly and expressed condolences on our behalf. It's especially hard to accept for those who played with Sam from an early age and, of course, for JR and Terry who successfully guided and mentored him through our junior ranks. Everyone in the colts set-up shares the grief; we will be holding a minute's silence before our game on Saturday. All are welcome to come along and share in this mark of respect for a fine young man. 'Bye Sam, you will be missed. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> Subject: Sam Yarwood Author: Dave Critchlow [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: "Fri, Apr 08 2011, 8:38:02 GMT" I was saddened to hear of Sam`s tragic accident. As one of the coaching team during his Colts time at Moseley I would just like to say that it was a pleasure to be associated with him. " Crazy Legs " was a good player but he was also the type of person you want around, honest,willing,funny,great attitude,and a good team man. I extend my sympathy to his family.

[> Subject: Bournemouth Rugby Club Author: Greg [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: "Thu, Apr 14 2011, 9:22:26 GMT" Just a thought. I don't know if Bournemouth RFC run the big sevens tournament down there, but it may be apt to send a Moseley team down with former team mates of Sam. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> Subject: Collection from Saturdays game Author: Louise - MSA [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: "Wed, Apr 20 2011, 13:59:45 GMT" On behalf of the MSA i would like to thank all the kind and generous people who added to the collection for Sam. We raised an incrediable amount £185.00 which was taken up yesterday to the club house. Thank you all once again. RIP Sam Crazy Legs Yarwood [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
