🥊 MASSIVE CONGRATULATIONS TO DAVID! 🥊

fans Huge shoutout to one of our incredibly active club members, David Ferrier, who absolutely smashed The Lakesman half-distance triathlon! 🏊‍♂️🚴‍♂️🏃‍♂️

Ten years of taking on this brutal event, and he’s still showing us all exactly how it's done. David tackled a 1.2-mile swim in Derwentwater, powered through a grueling 56-mile bike ride, and dug deep to finish off with a scorching 13.1-mile run in the blazing heat—crossing the finish line in an awesome 7 hours and 33 minutes!

Anyone who knows David from around the gym at Wigton ABC knows he never shies away from a challenge. He is a true inspiration for others, and his sheer hard work, determination, and fitness abilities honestly have us in awe.

His challenges just keep getting bigger and better, and we absolutely can’t wait to see what the next one is! He’s already eyeing up the full-distance event for 2027, and you can bet the whole club will be right behind him.

Absolutely fantastic achievement, David —outstanding work from everyone at Wigton ABC we are so very proud of you! 💥💪

You’ve probably seen our club badge at Wigton ABC every time you step into the gym, but do you know what our badge represents? 🥊✨

Our crest isn’t just a random design—it was specially created by artist David Yarrow to tell the story of our town, our heritage, and our fighting spirit. Every single corner carries a deep meaning for our community and our boxers:

The Poppy: Positioned with pride, it serves as a lasting mark of respect to honour fallen soldiers and our local heroes.
The Throstle: A nod to our local roots, this bird is deeply woven into Wigton's heritage and represents where we come from.
The Monument: Standing proud right in the design, it represents the heart and centre of Wigton town, reminding our boxers exactly who they are representing when they step into the ring.
The Three Lions: Symbolising our official connection to England Boxing, representing courage, pride, and the high standards our athletes train to meet every single day.

Next time you look at the badge on your kit or on the gym wall, remember that you’re wearing the history, heart, and pride of Wigton. Let's keep working hard and matching what that badge stands for! 👊💜💛🖤

Thank you to David Allen - Cumbria Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner, and Sian Walton for visiting the gym this evening! It was an absolute pleasure to show them around and show them exactly how we have invested our grant funding, as well as the vital work we do here in the community.

Huge well done to everyone who turned up and worked so hard in the heat tonight—the effort was incredible.

Make sure to rehydrate and rest up tonight. Tomorrow we go again! 🥊💪

💦 NO WATER BOTTLE = NO TRAINING. KEEP HYDRATED, TEAM! 💦

With the energy levels flying high and the gym absolutely buzzing, we need to talk about staying safe, staying sharp, and staying hydrated. 📈🔥
Boxing is brutal work. When you're giving 100% on the bags or in the ring, your body needs fuel—and that means water. Dehydration ruins your performance, drains your energy, and puts your health at risk. We want you training at your absolute best, safely.

So, we are keeping it simple: From now on, if you don’t bring a water bottle, you don’t train. No exceptions. 🛑❌

Make it an unmissable part of your gear checklist:
✅ Hand wraps
✅ Gloves
✅ WATER BOTTLE

Let’s look after our bodies, keep the intensity massive, and smash our training safely. See you on the canvas—fully hydrated and ready to work! 👊💥

🥊 RESPECT THE RING: OUR GYM STANDARDS 🥊

Championship culture isn’t just about how hard you hit—it’s about how you show up. True discipline starts before the first bell even rings, and at Wigton ABC, we hold ourselves to a higher standard.

To get the most out of your training and show respect to the coaches dedicating their time to your skills, we live by three strict rules:

🔇 Focus Up: Wrap up the social hour downstairs. The training floor is strictly for work.
⏳ Be Early: Be on the mats, wrapped, laced up, and ready before the session starts.
🚫 No Lateness: Walking through the door at start time means you're already behind.

Set the bar high for yourself and keep it there. Let’s get to work. 👊💥

Another appreciation post from us here at Wigton ABC! 🥊

This time, a massive thank you goes out to the amazing team at The Rebuild Site CIC. We reached out to them regarding a project we are currently working on, and they didn't hesitate to jump right in and help us out with materials. 🛠️

We also need to give a huge shoutout to Neil Patterson in Carlisle Wickes, who has stepped up to assist us once again with the fixings for this project. 🔩

We are incredibly grateful for the continued support from local businesses—it makes a massive difference to our club.

Watch this space to see the project unfold! 👀👇
