What better than to kick start the season with 95 bouts.

What an awesome weekend at the South Island Novice Championship, we are extremely grateful for our hosts Woolston Boxing Club for being very accomodating and putting another spectacular tournament. We are always privileged to officiate the fresh talent that the South Island offers. This year we witnessed what we believed to be some of the most impressive performances displayed by debuts and novices, many displaying very seasoned boxing ability. We congratulate all debutants, runner ups and novice champions, it takes a lot of bravery to don the red or blue and step inside the ring and many of you win or lose displayed plenty of that. The year ahead looks very bright on the horizon.

If you or someone you know is keen to get in the ring or sit ringside, but not in red or blue and instead in white and black, get touch with us, we always welcome helping hands.
