Josh Mullen and Drew Campbell won gold, with Brandon Murray, John Deighan, John Kelly, Keenan Roney, Jayson Sneddon and Lewis Swan all picking up silver medals.

“Between the recent Novice Championships and the Western District Championships, the club has picked up six gold and seven silver medals, with the majority of these lads boxing in their first ever bouts.”
