Susan Hubbard

Sue has been a shining light in the sporting community of her small Hampshire town for the last 21 years. Having played for the local tennis club for the duration of her time in Alton, she has captained both the ladies and mixed doubles teams, as well as being in the committee for almost a decade. Initially this involved looking after the whole the junior coaching program but more recently, she has been integral to the redevelopment of the club, which is now in the process of adding 4 new floodlit courts and a brand new club house. In addition to her tennis commitments, Sue has represented the town as part of the premier squash team and veteran netball teams. The latter role was primarily spent coaching, using her experience as a welsh youth international to help others improve and get back into sport after passing 40. Finally, Sue has been an vital to the success of the junior section of the most thriving cricket clubs in the area, which has at least 10 junior teams for both boys and girls from under 9 to under 17. She is part of the team that organises the Chance to Shine coaching program, allowing club coaches to go into local schools. Sue's hard work earned the club the prestigious National Chance to Shine award in 2008, an honour which she collected from John Major. Sue is a brilliantly hard working and selfless sports volunteer across a wide range of local sporting organisations, Her passion and skill deserves to be recognised with this exceptional privilege.
