A mother has paid tribute to her "beautiful" 24-year-old son who died after suffering a heart attack while playing cricket.
Josh Downie, brother of Olympians Becky and Ellie, collapsed in the nets in Birkenhead, near Liverpool, on 6 May and was pronounced dead that evening.
His mother Helen said he had no known health problems.
She added the keen cricketer and PE teacher's death had "left a massive hole in our lives".
"It's just completely out of the blue," she said. "It doesn't seem real at the moment."
