The Women’s Winter Box Cup debuted in 2018 to great acclaim, ensuring an annual spot on the competition calendar.
More than 160 boxers took part in the maiden event from various countries including Ireland, Latvia, Holland, New Zealand, Spain, Jersey and, of course, England. Shona Whitwell won the belt for the competition’s best boxer, while World and European Youth champion Gemma Richardson also participated. Since then, the box cup has gone from strength to strength and has welcomed boxers from new destinations and exhibited a high level of amateur boxing.
The women and girls-only event – which was the first of its type in the UK when established – is open to Juniors, Youth and Elite boxers across a variety of weights. It aims to help develop the strength in depth of women’s boxing and also act as an inspiration to other women and girls who may wish to get involved in the sport.
