Tributes have been paid to young rugby player Sebastian and his parents. The Chesterfield Panthers, who Sebastian previously played for, said in a statement: "It is with the heaviest of hearts that we share the devastating news of the tragic passing of three much-loved members of our Panthers family — Seb Moore, his father Andy Moore, and Seb’s mum Swala Harling.

"Seb joined Chesterfield Panthers RUFC at the start of this season, becoming part of our Under 15s squad. While he had spent much of his rugby journey with Tupton Rugby Union Football Club, Seb and Andy became part of our club like they had always been with us — respected by teammates, coaches and parents alike."

They added Sebastian was a "kind, calm and friendly young man, always willing to listen, always with a smile, and always giving his best for the team."

The statement continued: "Swala’s passing is equally heartbreaking. Though not as closely involved at the club, it is clear how much love and warmth she brought to her family, and how deeply missed she will be by those who knew her.

"Our thoughts and love go out to their family and friends during this incredibly painful time — especially to Seb’s younger sister, just eight years old, who survived the accident and is now beginning her journey toward recovery. She has already shown remarkable strength and resilience, and we will continue to hold her in our hearts in the days, weeks and months ahead."

A Facebook post from Sebastian's former team Tupton Rugby Club, added: "We at Tupton Rugby Club were devastated to hear about the tragic accident that resulted in the loss of two of our dear parents, Andy and Swala, and their son Seb, who was a player within our minis and junior sections of the club.

"They have left behind a beloved 8-year-old daughter, and we are asking for your support by donating to the GoFundMe page that will help support this little girl on her road to recovery."
