Dear Members,
Boxing Scotland is delighted to share the full entry list for this season’s Novice Championships.
There has been an incredible response to our first Novice Championships in nearly two and a half years, with 797 entries.
That figure makes next month’s event the largest Championships in the UK, and one of the biggest in Europe.
Boxing Scotland CEO Chris Roberts OBE said: “It is fantastic to see almost 800 entries for this year’s Novice Championships, which is significantly higher than we have ever had before.
“We look forward to welcoming clubs from across Scotland for what should be six great days of boxing across two weekends next month.
“This is another important step on the pathway to the recovery of our sport in Scotland.”

The Championships will be held at Ravenscraig Regional Sports Facility, Motherwell on the weekends of 4th/5th/ 6th of February and the 11th/12th/13th February. Depending on entries there will be a requirement to hold further Novice Bouts at the HPC or move to a district event after the published dates. These will be communicated in due course.
Please note, where a boxer has entered in a weight category that has at least one other entry they will remain in their chosen weight category.
Where a boxer has been entered and is a single entry in that age and weight category, the club will be given the opportunity to have the boxer moved one weight classification up or down.
If a club wishes to do so they must request in writing to competitions@boxingscotland.org by 1400 on Monday 24th January.
All other administrative amendments (ie wrong club name/age category) must also be e-mailed to competitions@boxingscotland.org by 1400 on Monday 24th January.
All payments must also have been received by Boxing Scotland from clubs for entry by 1700 on Monday 24th January, with the draw due to take place shortly after this.
Please note, going forward the following will be strictly enforced:
NO BOXER BOOKS CAN BE COLLECTED ON THE DAY
NO COACH BADGES CAN BE COLLECTED ON THE DAY
We are a small team who work extremely hard to ensure that all requests for cards and badges are met within the timescales, you can help us by ensuring that you have sight of your boxers book and your coaching badges at least one week before the competition.
If you have any queries regarding books or badges please email competitions@boxingscotland.org after reading this post
Regards,
Boxing Scotland
