NABC Boxing Championships back in London in November
The Essex Boys and Girls Clubs are running the Anglian and London Rounds of the Championships at the Peacock Gym in London behind closed doors in November 2022 between the 4th-6th and 11th-13th.
For the first time ever, the Championships will be livestreamed on Joymo giving more people than ever a chance to watch the next generation of boxers.
The London Federation of Boys Club boxing championships, or the “Feds” as they have been known for much of their history, first took place at the turn of the 20th Century around 1903. They were the first youth championships of their kind in the country and really formalised youth boxing in the UK. The “Feds” were later to become a quarter final round of the National Association of Boys Clubs or NABC championships.
The NABC’s was and still is a truly UK event with young people taking part from all four countries that make up the United Kingdom and almost every British professional World Champion and British fighter would have progressed through the NABC Championships.
Finals of the Feds and the NABC’s have taken place at venues such as the Albert Hall as well as top London Hotels such as the Café Royal, Grosvenor and Park Lane Hilton. Often attracting the great and good and famous. The Duke of Edinburgh was a regular attender back in the 1950’s.
These Championships were regularly reported on and shown midweek on BBC TV on the Harry Carpenter sports night right up until the programme stopped being aired in the late 90’s.
Now in 2022, the NABC’s are back and being run again, and, for the first time in its history, they are being live streamed.
