🥊🇬🇧 Farewell and Good Luck, Rivers Dunn 🇬🇧🥊
Today we say farewell to one of our own, Rivers Dunn, as he embarks on an incredible new chapter, beginning his training journey with the Royal Marines Commandos.
Rivers holds a special place in the history of Newquay Boxing Academy, being one of the very first boxers from our club to compete in the Junior Championships. Since those early days, he has grown not only as a boxer but as a young man of outstanding character, dedication, and determination.
Over the years, Rivers has progressed from a boy boxer to a qualified coach, spending the last few months helping to develop and inspire the next generation of our junior boxers. His commitment, leadership, and positive attitude have made a lasting impact on everyone at the club.
A Note from our El Presidente
"We are sad but proud to wave our very own Rivers off to join the Royal Marines Commandos at Lympstone tomorrow. He has been with the club as a boy boxer through to qualifying as a coach, involved for the last few months bringing on our junior boxers. Rivers is a credit to his family and the club, demonstrating an excellent character and attitude at all times and in all things. We will miss him greatly but wish this outstanding young man the very best. From us all at Newquay Boxing Academy, we will be with you all the way."
Rivers, thank you for everything you have given to the club. We are immensely proud of your achievements and have no doubt you will attack this next challenge with the same courage, discipline, and determination you have always shown in the boxing ring.
Good luck, Your Newquay Boxing Academy family will be cheering you on every step of the way.
