Young boxers will join fighters from all over the world at a gruelling training camp in Spain.
Seven members of Epping ABC will fly to Spain on Sunday to attend the Totana Sparring Camp for a week of early morning mountain runs, swimming, technical training and competitions.
National Champions Luke Draper and George Branch will be joined by their teammates, Larry Stokes, Dylan Curtis, Harrison McFaul, Frankie Locke and Frankie Marks and four of the clubs’ coaches.
More than 100 young boxers from around the world are expected to attend the camp, based in the Sierra Espuna mountains in Spain and run by former professional super middleweight boxer Sam Storey.
Head coach Danny Spicer said: “We are excited to be able to attend Totana Sparring Camp this year. It will be an amazing experienced for our boxers and something I am sure they will remember for their whole lives.
"They will be living, eating and sleeping boxing for the week and will learn some harsh but invaluable lessons, coming back both physically and mentally stronger."
