Two of Bristol?s oldest amateur boxing clubs combined again this weekend (July 18th) to raise funds for the local hospice.
Members of Empire and NSC ABC?S turned out in force to support popular ex-Empire amateur and current rookie pro Daniel Roberts who was spearheading the day in memory of a family friend who had recently died of cancer.
The day was organised by Empire Secretary Martin Bisp and took place in Broadmead, Bristol's main shopping centre.
To provide a focal point a ring was erected to attract the passing shoppers. The clubs put on some exhibition sparring and coaxed a number of passing youngsters to have a go on the pads and skipping + some of the brave ones tried to knock Daniel out during some light hearted sparring! Throughout the day hundreds of youngsters participated.
Promoter Chris Sanigar and current British Super Fly Weight Champion Lee Haskins turned up unexpectedly to lend their support. Haskins even brought his Lonsdale belt so youngsters could have their picture taken which resulted in queues 10 deep. Lee then brought the centre to a standstill with an impromptu session on the pads in front of the growing crowd.
After 3 hours the clubs had managed to raise in excess of £880 and are currently trying to get a local company to make the money up to a £1000.
Bisp said that the day was a great success with Roberts and the clubs raising a significant amount of money for the only local hospice which also cares for it's patients without charge. He added that he would like to thank Marks & Spencers and Starbucks who provided free refreshments throughout the day and to Boots who developed the photos.

The team met at Bristol Airport for their lunchtime departure, all were in good spirits. A team meeting was held where Dave Dungay was selected as Captain, and the boxers intorduced to eachother. A good flight was particularly enjoyed by Mike Freeman and Jerry Connors, taking to the air for the first time.
Rooms were allocated at the Ambassador Hotel, and the host 'Basil' made us all very welcome. Soup and sandwiches followed before a gentle stroll into town.
All the boxers came in at the required weight, except T Maunder from Guernsey. This meant Rahim Nanji's bout was off, a real shame for a smashing young lad, who then took on the camera man role for the night. A team meeting was held for final instructions before the action started.
Bout 1
NSC boxer 'Mighty Mouse' Jerry Connors got proceedings underway against J Gilvear. A superb opening contest saw Gilvear edge a close points decision. A great effort from Jerry, just pipped after boxing well.
Bout 2
Walcots Tommy McDonagh oozed class against Alderney boxer C Sumner. A crunching body shot had Sumner down for the 8 count in round 1. Tommy piled on the presure and the style to ease home on points.
Bout 3
NSC's Bradley Collingbourne was going well against Gage Demore, until his nose started to bleed heavily. After 2 inspection from the referee, the coach withdrew his boxer as he was unable to stem the flow.
Bout 4
Broad Plain's Mathew Donnely and Alan Myres engaged in a toe to toe battle of attrition right from the start. This was a cracking contest, that went one way then the other. Donnely getting the nod to a standing ovation from the packed dinner crowd.
Bout 5
Cornishman Marcus Hodgeson faced tough Bradley Watson, who came out all guns blazing. After a torrid first round, Hodgeson rallied in the second. Round three saw Marcus on top, with stunning counter attacks and some brilliant footwork. Watson was on the receiving end at the final bell, but had done enough to win.
Bout 6
Forest Oaks boxer Mike Freeman faced J Woolnough who seemed to have his measure. Only a busy final round, where he never stopped working would be enough. Mike getting a majority win that could have gone either way. Very close.
Bout 7
Captain Sensible Dave Dungay from Devonport met up with W Calladine, who clearly wanted to take Daves head off. Dave stuck to his instructions in the final round, and forund the room for a stunning right cross. Calladines legs turned to jelley, and the referee waved it off. A great Captains performance.
Bout 8
Neal Herbert crossed swords with C Pearson, and seemed to have the bout under control. Three rounds of action with Mayflowers Herbert on top failed to impress the judges. peasron winning by unanimous decision to the amazement of the away camp.
Bout 9
The decider. With the scores level at 4-4, Mike Rose faced off against T Duff. Another super contest had the crowd on its feet, with Rose starting particularly strongly. The game Duff couldnt keep Rose away, and all three judges declared Fromes Mike, and the Western Counties team, the winner.
Both sets of boxers and coaches then met up back at the Ambassador for a buffet and drinks. Guernsey made us very welcome, and we were treated like kings for the entire weekend. Basil served up some top quality food and was a great host.
The boxers behaved well, and listened to the coaches instructions.
Team Manger: Alan Brightman
Coaches Steve Gawron and Les Brooking

Smelters Magnificent Seven The National Smelting Company held its forth boxing tournament of the season at the Pill Memorial Club on Thursday 9th April. The show was sponsored by D & D Shoe Repairs, who very kindly bought new tracksuits for the NSC boxing team. First to box in his debut bout was 11-year-old Orlando Rawlings in a non-decision skills bout. Said NSC Head coach Garry Cave "A skills bout is similar to a real contest but the empathise is more on skilful boxing over three rounds and not all out aggression. Both boxers get their arms raised at the end of the bout, so there's no losers only winners. They're a fantastic way of introducing young boxers into the sport, it really brings them on". Second on this 12 bout bill was 12-year-old Tom Cave, son of Garry, in his first competitive bout after previously boxing in three skills bouts, matched against Kyle Holden Of Mayflower ABC from Plymouth. Despite giving away height and weight and after a very hard going first round, young Cave started to find his range with good straight punch combinations and rack up the points to win his bout with a unanimous points verdict. Informed Cave "After the first minute I thought I'd got him in over his head with the size difference but he bit down on his gum shield and showed some bottle and pulled it out the bag in the second and third rounds". Third up for the host club was Pilning's James Shackell facing across the ring in the blue corner Keelan Morris of Synwell ABC. Reported Cave "James worked very hard throwing loads of punches, he really set a fast pace, a pace that turned out to be just too much for Kellan who was retired by his corner after the second round. I'm made up for James he lost his first two bouts and hasn't had much luck with results despite two very good performances. This should be a good confidence booster for the lad and was a well deserved win after all the effort he's put in at the gym and in his roadwork." Next up for the Smelters and hoping to keep the club on a winning streak was 12-year-old Jake Musgrove versus Faz Macvey of Salisbury. Musgrove nick named 'The Monster' by his club mates was in ferocious form with his all action front foot style. Musgrove a Western Counties Schoolboy champ wasn't to be denied, forcing a third round stoppage due to relentless pressure and moves to five wins from eight bouts. Said Cave " Jake only boxes one way and that's full on, but he's also a very skilful aggressive boxer with a good defence, that always gives 100%". After three wins for the NSC it was down to 15-year-old welterweight Dan Wickins in his third outing boxing Aaron Chivers Of Salisbury. Dan had won his first bout two weeks previously at the Wells show in a bout that saw three knockdowns. Said Cave "Dan had one hell of a bout at Wells he shipped a couple of big punches but showed his mettle and put the other kid down in the second and third round to go on to win unanimous from the three judges. He boxed really well again in this bout showing great composure and picked his shots to win on points". Light welterweight Bradley Collingbourne had a torrid time against Dan Butler of Gloucester ABC. The Gloucester boxer was disqualified in the 3rd round for constant infringement of the rules. Informed Cave "What a horrible bout, Butler was constantly warned for holding, but full respect to Brad he kept his head and did his best versus an opponent that didn't want to stand and box" You can only box what's put in front of you and Brad showed good sportsmanship throughout". Bout nine saw local welterweights Terry Richards from Southmead lose on points to Dan Sarkozi of Bristol's Empire ABC. Richards struggled with the bigger size of Sarkozi in a bout at times that got a bit scrappy. Said Cave " We where all a bit disappointed for Terry as we thought he had the tools to beat Sarkozi but Terry really struggled with the height and weight difference. But Terry was back to winning ways last Saturday where he was picked along with Southmeads light heavy Jo Ross to box versus a Jersey select team. Both got a win and to get a result out there was brilliant, the Western Counties Coach told me they both boxed brilliantly and where a real credit to the club and the Western Counties Boxing Team". Stable mate Jo Ross was pitched in with the very useful Henry Roy of Empire, and after two hard fought rounds pulled out a peach of a left hook that caused a bad cut over the Empire boxers eye. Said Cave " You don't see that many cuts in amateur boxing due to the head guards and gloves at are designed to prevent them. Unfortunately, this was a deep one and the referee had no option to halt the action in favour of Jo in the third". Last on the bill was Avonmouth first team rugby player and NSC boxer Liam Poole boxing at light heavy and winning pts in a very close hard fought bout versus Ryan Morris of Tiverton ABC with Poole landing the cleaner and heavier blows. That made it a very impressive nights work for the Avonmouth based club with seven wins from eight competitive bouts for the NSC. The NSC has had two more of it's boxers in juniors Bradley Collingbourne and Jerry Connors who have both been selected to box v a Guernsey team in a rep match on Friday the 24th of April. The following night Dan Wickins, Jake Musgrove and Terry Richards are all matched up to box on the MYCON ABC bill at Nailsea. The NSC host their next home show at the Patchway Sports Centre on Thursday June the 4th, doors at 7pm, first bell at 8pm. This is a joint show with Empire ABC.

Patchway Schoolboy and National Smelting Co Amateur Boxer Tyler 'The Tiger' Davies 14 years old roared on to his second Western Counties Championship Title on Sunday at the School's ABA Championships held at Broadplain boxing club in Bristol.
Tyler is very kindly sponsored by RM Building Services, which supports him with boxing equipment.
Informed Tyler's coach Garry Cave "After winning a Western Counties title last year and narrowly losing in the national quarter finals, we knew he had the tools and talent to do well again this year and he didn't disappoint. Matched against Joshua Mason of Bideford ABC the Tiger was ferocious from the opening bell, throwing power packed combinations and forcing a protection count, The 2nd round saw the Tiger start where he left off leaving the Referee with no option but to hand out another standing count and call the bout off in favor of Tyler Davies wining by 2nd round RSC. Said Coach Cave " Tyler is one of the quietest, politest and most un assuming young lads you could wish to meet but put the gloves on him and when that bell goes he's like a demon. We're all really pleased for him at the club he's put so much into his pre competition training and has reaped the rewards. Hopefully he'll do well in the next round also but win or lose like all the lads that get through the ropes to box he's a champion".|

A Bristol boxing club plans a spectacular evening of Amateur boxing. The National Smelting Co Amateur Boxing Club known as the 'Smelters' are staging an Amateur Boxing tournament at The Patchway Sports Centre on Thursday the 12th of February, Doors open at 7pm with the first bell at 8pm.

Informed Smelters Head Coach Garry Cave "The last show we staged in November at Patchway was our biggest yet, we had in excess of 400 paying spectators and put on a full card of both junior and senior bouts, with 14 great contests, we even had one of our ex boxers Dalton Saunders fly in all the way from Australia to box and win on the show. I'm hoping we can sell 500 tickets for this one and put 15 all action bouts on. We've clubs all across the Southwest and Wales boxing plus local clubs Downend, Empire & Synwell it's sure to be a great nights entertainment with lots of keenly contested all action bouts featuring many up and coming prospects. But it's not only boxing we're putting on we've Paula's Street Dance Group booked to entertain before the first bell and during the interval. They appeared on a BAWA show we did last year and they where mint. Also featuring again is Ring Card Girl the lovely Stephanie, she certainly caused a stir with her back flips across the ring at the last show! The club is kindly requesting local businesses to sponsor bouts in return for some free ringside seats and adverts in the show program. Any money raised from the show will go towards the completion of the new Smelters boxing gym in Avonmouth. Said Cave " Where hopeful it will be open for business in Feb, as we've just a couple of jobs left and the sports flooring to go in. We've just had all the electrics finished and many thanks to Lockwell Lectrics who pulled out all the stops to help us out. Everybody's getting really excited about the new gym it's been a long slog to get the Sport England funding and get the building up. We've had some fantastic help, one of the boxers Dad's Mark Shackill and his Company MS Fabrication helped us by putting the building up and all for free and we'd have never have done it without him and his lads". This project has really pulled the club together even the junior boxers helped out by painting the gym over the Christmas Holidays." There will be a bar, hot food, DJ and an MC to add to the entertainment. If you want tickets contact Garry on 07876 233621, they're priced at £10 over 16s and £5 under 16's.

Gary lost pts last night v Ed Bradbury of Bodmin in the Western Counties finals at Torquay.
The bout was a classic, a real war and very even with both boxers giving everything, and one of the best bouts I?ve ever seen, both boxers where a credit to themselves and their clubs. Boxers and bouts like that make it all worthwhile.
It was a real pleasure to be in Gary?s corner, he was class both inside and outside the ring.
Take heart Gary that?s three bouts in three weeks and two wins and a Divisional title.
Top effort
Garry Cave
Proud to be the NSC Head Coach|

Jerry ?Mighty Mouse? Connors with 2 wins from 2 bouts boxed Friday 7th November at the Penhill Royal British Legion matched against Irelands Jack Creane with 3 wins from 3 bouts, Wexford boxing club. Jerry took the fight to the taller Creane and outworked and out fought him at mid range, a great bout from two unbeaten young prospects with Connors winning a unam pts decision and taking him to an impressive 3 wins.

Well done The Mighty Mouse!!
Korey Robertson went to Weymouth Saturday the 8th, but the Weymouth boxer called Storm Look who scaled 45.5kg!! to Korey?s 41kg so it was decided to take a non decision skills bout. Well done Korey you first away bout and you did your bit which is all that can be asked, got 3 good rounds in.

The National Smelting Co Amateur Boxing Club, known as the Smelters, had two of it?s senior boxers competing in The ABA Senior Novice Championships Saturday at Cinderford. After a few years out of the sport, four bout Senior Welterweight Gary Low was hoping for a fresh start to his boxing career now boxing under the Smelters banner coached by NSC?s Jake Whiteside & Lee Cummings.
Matched against the taller Dan Constable of local club Lydney ABC in the 2nd bout of the night. Reported Smelters head Coach Garry Cave ? Gary?s a very fit and strong senior, with the physique and boxing style of a young Mike Tyson but to our surprise Dan Constable was his physical equal but taller?. This would be a hard bout with Gary just getting back into his boxing and what a war it turned out to be both lads matching each other with power packed punches. Low mixing it up with hooks to head and body with some eye catching over hand right handers that rocked Constables head back on several occasions. Constable steadily scoring with his longer power jabs, Low ducking and slipped into range to unload his bigger bombs. Said Cave ?Both lads gave everything, leaving nothing in the tank. It was a great bout of boxing from two cracking boxers, it was very close?. Gary Low winning a unanimous and hard fought decision. That was the good news but with four entrants at the weight, Low was informed he?d have to box yet again later in the night to win the division. Said Cave ?After such a hard fight Gary wasn?t really sure he had another three rounds like that in him, but after a wash and brush up he was all ready go?. Stable mate and sparring partner Terry ?The Turbo? Richards 12 bouts with an impressive 9 wins also at welterweight but boxing under the more experienced category for boxers under 20 bouts was next up for the Smelters at bout 8 on this 15 bout bill, against the host clubs Mike Freeman of Forest Oaks. Informed Cave ? We fancied Terry to win at least a regional title in these champs but it wasn?t to be, Mike Freeman was the busier of the two on the night, so got a deserved win, but it was a very close contest with one judge having it 12 pts each after three keenly contested rounds. Terry was a bit gutted but we have him matched on our next home show on Thursday the 20th of November at Patchway Sports Centre, doors 7pm, where he?s hoping to get his seasons first win. You win some you lose some that?s amateur boxing, the bouts are matched 50/50 so if you win half you?re doing well. Back on at bout 12 after a short rest was Gary Low, hoping to make it two wins from two and clinch the divisional welterweight title?. Said NSC Club Coach Jake Whiteside ?We?d seen Gary?s next opponent Ben Copsy of Salisbury City win earlier in the night and thought Gary had the tools to beat him?. Low didn?t disappoint turning in a controlled performance scoring with many straight body shots as the fleet footed Copsy tried to dance around and box at range.
Low winning a majority decision and the Divisional Title.
Summed up by NSC Coach Lee Cummings ?Both lads boxed very well and where a credit to themselves and the club, not only in the ring but outside also, they are two of the nicest lads you could wish to meet but put the gloves on them and it?s all business?.
Next NSC show Thursday the 20th of November at Patchway Sports Centre, doors 7pm, for tickets ring Garry on 07876 233621.
