Places can be provisionally booked by emailing the Coach & Club Development Officer at; james.docherty@boxingscotland.org and specifying the full name(s) of the person(s) you are putting forward and which course they wish to attend from the two above. You/the club will then receive the course booking form, which must be completed and returned with full payment to secure your place(s).
Places not paid for in full by the stated deadline on the booking form will be offered to names on the reserve list.
