THE CHAMPS ARE HERE

The NABGC finals conclude

-

THE 2017 National Associatio­n of Boys & Girls Clubs Boxing Championsh­ips have concluded.

In Ben Rees the quality Birtley boxing club have produced yet another champion. Rees stepped up from middleweig­ht, where he competed in the quarterfin­als of the England Boxing Elite championsh­ips earlier this year. Rees defeated Harwich’s Pat Allan Cripps in the 81kgs Class D final.

Essex University middleweig­ht Lewis Richardson completed a busy end to the year. He was disappoint­ed in the GB championsh­ips but made sure of a championsh­ip title when he beat Triumph’s Bradley Goldsmith in the 75kgs final.

A national Elite championsh­ip semi-finalist this year, Hunslet’s

Ismail Khan took a Class D title, even if he was forced to settle for a walkover in his 56kgs final.

In the Class C finals Danielle Allsop made some history for St. John’s amateur boxing club in Chorlton when she unanimousl­y outscored North Allerton’s

Catherine Pringle at 69kgs. Allsop’s club coach Andy Rea said, “Danielle works very hard and deserves her success. We hope that this will be the first of many national titles for Danielle. She certainly has the potential. She has had to beat many good boxers to win this title, including some who were already winners of national titles.”

Chadwell St.mary’s, which underwent extensive fundraisin­g to save the club this year have a champion to take pride in in

Karol Itauma, who beat Redcar’s Benjamin Jarvis in the Class C 81kgs final. In the Class D superheavy­weight final Mehran Khan,

of Hamer, overcame Horsley Hill’s Dennis Sparkes. RESULTS:
