A “pioneer” and an “inspiration”, just two of the words her fellow match officials used to describe @SaraCoxRef to me ahead of this historic occasion. Congrats Coxy on hitting the big 5-0 - first female and 16th in history ❤️ #RWC2025

Fantastic to welcome back @SaraCoxRef to Broadclyst for our assembly, I know the children had such a wonderful time. When she was in Year 6 at Broadclyst we weren't expecting her to be a professional Rugby Referee, but we couldn't be prouder of her achievements!
