Brecon RFC:- Thoughts are with former player Kim Norkett and Family

Everyone connected with Brecon RFC, but particularly the more senior members, were shocked and saddened to hear the news of the tragic accident which resulted in the death of Elli Norkett. Elli, a young, talented Welsh Rugby International, was the daughter of Kim Norkett who was connected with the club during the mid 1980’s. Kim was, at that time, a teacher at Christ College. As a talented player and coach he represented the club on a number of occasions and assisted me (Ron) in a coaching capacity. He played scrum half regularly with Ebbw Vale and was a regular in the Breconshire County XV. Those of us who knew him and played with him will be saddened to hear of this tragedy which has robbed his family of not only a talented rugby player, with her life in front of her but more importantly someone,  “Who was loved and valued by many and who touched the hearts of all her family and friends due to her kind nature and endearing personality.”
