Ryan Scotland aiming for second national boxing final
Ryan Scotland is aiming to make his second national boxing final in a matter of months.
The Wodensborough Boxing Club member is back competing in the England Boxing National Amateur Championships, after reaching the last two of the delayed 2021 event.
This time he is competing in the 60-63kg weight category for juniors – 15 and 16-year-olds – and progressed through the Midlands stages with a pair of victories, winning the final against Christ the King's Lewis Hamill.
And after receiving a bye through the pre-quarter-finals, he will now face James Vaughan in the national quarter-finals in Liverpool this weekend.
Dad Martin said: "He's on form, and he's going to have to be on his A game."
Anyone who reaches the final this year will be selected to represent England in the Three Nations competition against Scotland and Wales.
