Lambton Street Boxingclub
Description
Amateur Boxing Club Lambton Street ABC is located within Lambton Street Youth Centre (www.lambtonstreetyouthcentre.com) which was initially established in the East End of Sunderland in 1901 before relocation to its current location in Ford Estate, Sunderland. For the past 20+ years the Project Manager for the centre has been ex-pro Featherweight Kevin Howard.
The club has continually nurtured local talent from raw novice to elite /open class boxers competing in all major national competitions including:
ABA Schoolboy National Championships
ABA Youth National Championships
ABA Junior National Championships
ABA Elite National Championships
National Association Clubs for Young People Championships (formerly known as NABC)
Currently the club has a total of 17 registered boxers (junior & senior) in addition to the many former registered boxers still training at the club and the outlook for the forthcoming season (2014 / 2015) will see the number of registered and active boxers easily exceed 20 in total (junior & senior).
The short term, medium term & long term objectives and outlook for the club are positive in every aspect including the strength and depth of boxers, coaching staff and management and the increase in fiscal revenue from the clubs shows, membership and sponsorship which will enable the club to develop and grow at every level.

A massive thank you to Stewart Lorains and the team at Whitby ABC for having us on there show tonight at the impressive Whitby Spar Pavilion. First up was Isaac Price who took the bout only this afternoon after the show faced a late notice pull out and was in with the host clubs game as a nut Tyler Thorpe where after 3 cracking rounds that entertained the sizeable crowd Isaac won a hard fought though deserved points decision. Next up was Lee Isherwood making his debut and in with the host clubs powerful, teak tough and aptly named Chris Warrior. Both lads let the hands go from the outset in a thrilling contest where Lee sustained a cut in the 1st round that required doctors inspection though went on to win a hard earned though deserved points decision in a three round battle royale. Traveling coaches Mark Price & Les Barrett both lads gave 100% effort, left nothing in the tank to both come away with a victory and did themselves and the club proud. Well done everyone :)
