Two teenage members of Attleborough Boxing Club have become national junior champions.
Tommy Fletcher, 16, and Lydia 'Socks' Nagle, 15, travelled to Rotherham for the England Boxing National Junior Championships final.
Lydia competed in the Class A female 50kg and Tommy in the Class B Male 70-75kg on Sunday, March 25.
In a strong start against Roxanne Fraser of Islington, the referee was forced to give Roxanne a standing eight count just before the bell in round two, and in round three Lydia won the match with a right hook after just 15 seconds, putting her through to the final.
After three rounds against Sadie Whiteland of Bletchley, Lydia was declared champion of her category by way of a split decision.
Tommy was announced champion in close match against Khalid Ayub, from Warrior Breed Boxing Club, also by way of a split decision, and made it onto the England Boxing talent path.
