Hertfordshire is sorry to announce the passing of Gill Oliver.
Gill started her netball career at Oakwood Netball Club in Middlesex where she was a player and coach. She moved to Hertfordshire in the 1980s where, as well as working with club teams, she coached the County senior team from 1990-1995 and the U18 & U21 teams from 1995-1997. She was a huge supporter and hard-working volunteer with Hertfordshire netball.
Along with Lynn Jackson she formed Hatfield Junior Club.
Gill was appointed England U17 coach in 1996 and was an England coach for several years.
Our condolences and best wishes to her family.
