Championship update


C'jay Barraclough (14) was to ill to compete at the school boys this month which was a big dissapointment for him as well as the club as he had worked so hard the last few months in prepertaion.


On another note, Jamie Tomlinson (11) still went to the minors and is now Yorkshire Minors Champion for his weight 40-42 kg class. He is now through to the nationals.

Jamie was supposed to box the Midlands champion in the quarter final but no-one in the Midlans entered so he has a by to the Semi Final against North West Champion on 22nd Febuary in Bolton. Please come along and support him on the day.

Having a Yorkshire champion in our 1st season with the ABAE is great but we are hoping to produce a national champion in Jamie!

Jamie is working very hard at the gym including extra sessions out of hours to do his best on getting his hands on that title so good luck to him.
