The northern powerhouses of Tyne, Tees and Wear and Yorkshire enjoyed an
England Boxing National Youth Championships 2021 to remember in Banbury at the
weekend, as boxers from those regions claimed a string of titles.

No less than eight boxers from the North-East prevailed in Sunday’s finals, with wins
for Shaun Huddart (Birtley) and Lee Rogers (both Birtley), Alex Hubery (Shildon),

Zoe MacDonald (Houghton), Jude Percival (Wearmouth), Harley Carberry
(Billingham), Sophie Ray (Kenton) and Reece Readshaw (Phil Thomas) in their
respective categories.

The White Rose county were not far behind at the Spiceball Leisure Centre thanks to
successes for Sabba Hussain (Sharkey’s), Jack Lambert (Laisterdyke), Teagn Stott
(Sheffield Boxing Centre), Codie Smith (Hull Boxing Centre), Florence Mangeni
(Gladiators), Maddie Gittens (St Paul’s) and Darren Littlewood (Parson Cross).

Together with three more titles for the North-West region, it meant the three most
northerly England Boxing regions accounted for 18 of the 41 titles on offer.
That said, there was a wide spread of wins covering the length and breadth of the
nation, with every one of the 11 regions providing at least one champion.

As ever, there was a strong showing for London, who had seven victories, while the
Midlands also did well, with five boxers coming out on top.

In all, 38 clubs could boast a national title by the end of the weekend, and only three
of them (West Ham, Priory Park and Birtley) had more than one victor.

“Across the female and male categories, we saw some very accomplished
performances from young boxers who have clearly been working hard during the
break enforced by Covid-19,” said England Development Coach, Amanda Coulson.

“While there was no Championships for lots of the age groups last year, the Youths
did manage to get theirs in before the first lockdown, but, even so, there were still lots of boxers at the weekend who really came to our attention for the first time, as well as others who we already know about.

“Although there is no talent pathway this year, it is expected to be back up and
running next year, and we are inviting those who won Open class titles to attend a
Youth Champions Day with the England Talent coaches on Sunday 12th December
(at West Ham Boxing Club).

“Those who have performed well here, and, age-wise, are still eligible, have also put
themselves in a strong position for the England Boxing National Youth
Championships 2022, which are coming up in February.”

Open Class champions were rewarded with a championship belt, while Cadets and
Development boxers won a gold medal.

Finalists in all classes picked up silver medals and losing semi-finalists bronze
medals, while all boxers from the quarter-finals stages onwards received an England
Boxing certificate in recognition of their efforts.

Female boxers of the tournament, as selected by the team of watching England
Talent coaches, were Florence Mangeni (Development, Gladiators, Under 54kg),
Alex Bryant (Cadet, Trowbridge, Under 55kg) and Sacha Hickey (Open Class,
Peacock, Under 64kg).

Male boxers of the tournament were Louie Ward (Development, Rainham, Under
60kg), Tom Welland (Cadet, West Ham, Under 56kg) and Codie Smith (Open Class,
Hull Boxing Centre, Under 60kg).

The female bout of tournament was Alex Bryant (Trowbridge) v Acacia Barron
(Titleshot) in the Cadet category, while the male bout of the tournament was Lee
Rogers (Birtley) v Lewis Noakes (Hall Green) in the Open Class.
