YOUNG boxers will be showing off their skills in the ring to raise money for much needed new equipment.
Leigh ABC has organised an Exhibition of Sparring at The Stables-based club, Market Street, on December 13 at 2pm with the aim of buying a bigger ring.
Coaches hope that potential sponsors will drop in to see the skill levels of the fighters aged from eight upwards, including novices and registered ABA boxers.
They are also aiming to attract more boys and girls into the sport and with top local boxers Chris Jackson, Neil Boulton and Itzhaz Ballal on show an entertaining afternoon is promised.
All coaches at the club, situated behind the Boars Head pub, are fully qualified and the facilities are open to anyone from 8-80 who wish to keep fit.
Admission to the exhibition is free and further details are available from Adrian on 01942 602701.
