Dear LIARFC Family

It is with a very heavy heart that I need to let you know that Harry Pitts, a player from our U14 squad, sadly passed away in his sleep on 30th July.

Harry has been part of LIARFC since he was just 5 years old. He is one of the nicest and kindest lads who loved the sport he was great at.

Harry will be dearly missed and our thoughts and prayers are with Harry’s family.

I know this tragic news is going to be hard for you and your child to hear. Bereavement support services are available, should you wish to access them:

For any player or coach attending, please wear a club tie.

Please do reach out directly if needed and please support each other at this difficult time.
