Finn Pridmore

Since I was 5 years old, Simon was a great rugby coach: always there to support me and the team, always smiling and always positive, and inspiring us to be the best we could be. On tour he was always up for a laugh but rugby was never far from his mind. Thank you, Simon, for all the great years; I will never forget. From Finn

Lou and Kenny Pridmore

We are broken-hearted. Simon was an inspiration and support to many, including our son. He was as kind and genuine a soul as you could ever hope to meet. His fun spirit and camaraderie will never be forgotten. We are so lucky to have known him.
