shahanshahan Posted September 21, 2023 Report Share Posted September 21, 2023 From Sheffield United's website: Sheffield United Football Club is devastated to report the sad news of the passing of Maddy Cusack. Maddy, a women's team player since 2019 and marketing executive for the Football Club, passed away on Wednesday. A respected player, Maddy, 27, last season reached the milestone of 100 appearances for Sheffield United Women. Additionally, she was a valued colleague in the offices at Bramall Lane, moving over from the Sheffield United Community Foundation to the Club in 2021 to help market all areas of the Blades. Stephen Bettis, United's chief executive officer, commented: "This is heartbreaking news for everyone at Bramall Lane. Maddy had a unique position of being part of a number of teams at Sheffield United and was popular with everyone that she came into contact with. Her personality and professionalism made her a credit to her family - she will be sadly missed. Whilst taking in the news and moving forward, the Club will offer as much support as possible to Maddy's family, friends and colleagues." Discussions over suitable tributes and celebrating Maddy's life will continue privately. The Club and Maddy's family would appreciate a period of privacy and will not comment further at this sad time. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Watts Posted September 22, 2023 Report Share Posted September 22, 2023 It seems she missed a match last week due to illness. The only small crumb of comfort her family could take is that if it was an illness that led to her death, then at least if she had to pass she didn't suffer for long. Horrible news though.
