Vale Brittany McLaughlin
AFL Barwon extends its deepest condolences following the passing of St Mary’s player, Brittany McLaughlin.
Our thoughts are with Brittany’s family, friends, teammates and all members of the St Mary’s Sporting Club during this incredibly difficult time.
Brittany’s passing will be felt deeply across the local football community, and we acknowledge the significant impact this has had on those closest to her.
St Mary’s senior female football teams will not participate this weekend as the club and playing group take time to grieve and support one another.
AFL Barwon asks the broader football community to respect the privacy of Brittany’s loved ones and the St Mary’s community at this time.
We encourage anyone impacted by this news to seek support and check in on those around them. Support services are available through Lifeline on 13 11 14, or beyondblue on 1300 22 4636.
On behalf of the AFL Barwon community, we extend our sincere sympathies to everyone mourning the loss of Brittany.
