On Tuesday, 30th April, Emily Denham, from Aycliffe Boxing Club, travelled to Liverpool straight after school to box Elgin Bigley, Emily was far too strong for her opponent and the referee stopped the contest in the third round in favour of the Aycliffe boxer.
Emily is the current schools champion from 2023 after she boxed in the national final in Guildford in Surrey last May against a girl from Manchester.
Her next contest is in Newcastle Sports Centre, where she will defend her title against Ruby-Jo Dos Santos from Islington, London. Everyone at the club would like to wish Emily the best of luck in this year’s National Final. Well done Emily.
