October has been a busy month for Welsh Boxing, with two international fixtures against England and a dedicated development camp for some of Wales’ female amateur boxers.
Wales v England – Tony Wynne Cup
The first international took place on Sunday 4 October as Welsh boxers took on their English counterparts in the Tony Wynne Cup.
Across the U15, U17 and U19 age groups, the Welsh team produced four victories, with several strong performances across the programme. The results highlighted the competitiveness of the young Welsh squad.
Final score: Wales 4–8 England
Wales v England – Senior International
The second international followed on Wednesday 7 October, with Wales facing England in a senior contest.
The Welsh team continued to gain valuable experience on the international stage.
Final score: Wales 1–6 England.
Although the results did not go Wales’ way overall, the internationals provided important opportunities for boxers to test themselves against opposition from across the border, gain experience and continue their development.
Female Development Camp
Alongside the international fixtures, Welsh Boxing also hosted a women’s development camp at Sophia Gardens, bringing together 12 of Wales’ female boxing prospects
The camp provided an opportunity for the athletes to work together, develop their skills and continue progressing within the sport.
