Dear Members,
Boxing Scotland is happy to provide an update with regards to the Anthony Joshua Fund.
Applications to the one-off Fund provided by the reigning World Heavyweight champion closed earlier this week.
A three-person panel has now been appointed which consists of a Boxing Scotland member of staff, a member of the Boxing Scotland Board of Directors, and a member from sportscotland.
The panel will take their time to consider all of the applications and will aim to let all of the clubs who applied know if they have been successful or unsuccessful by the end of the month.
The money was donated to help clubs survive due to the financial implications of the coronavirus pandemic and will go to the clubs in greatest need of support.
Anthony Joshua OBE said: “The sport has given me a lot and I want to help highlight the issues affecting grassroots clubs and do what I can to keep the lights on to those most in need.”
Regards,
The Boxing Scotland Regional Development Team
