Sports Volunteer: Sadie Merrien

GUERNSEY RAIDERS secretary Sadie Merrien has been nominated for the Sports Volunteer of the Year award, sponsored by Sure.

‘Sadie works tirelessly for the club in her role as secretary,’ said her nominator, Rachel Merrien.

‘She attends meetings and is always sending emails, which often means that she has to work into the night, and as well as that she arrives hours before anybody else does on match days to make sure that everything is ready to go and to set up the club shop.

‘She also helps to set up various events for the club and ensures that everything runs smoothly.’

Sadie has been involved with Guernsey Raiders for almost a decade and was awarded the Bruce Mansell Memorial Trophy as Ambassador of the Year back in 2018.

‘She has helped the club so much in the background to ensure that nothing ever gets missed.’
