Visitors to the event were taken aback by the junior boxers' talent and the club enjoyed a high turn out of families.

Events like this are made possible due to Workington ABC's 'dedicated' volunteers, including committee members, who help the club to run smoothly.

The coaches are also praised for supporting the club's boxers.

Special thanks has gone to Tommy Boag, who coaches junior boxers twice a week, for his passion in training young boxers and helping the event come to fruition.

The volunteers and coaches eagerly anticipate witnessing the progress of young club members, and see where their journey takes them both as boxers and as individuals.

Workington ABC have more events in the pipeline for this year, which are yet to be announced.
