South Tyneside Open 2008

I'm pleased to say that the two lads from Wallsend club who took part in the South Tyneside Open today did extremely well.

Ellis Taylor (9 years old) winning his first fight, however unfortunately nerves got the better of him and he didn't feel up to carrying on afterwards.

James Brownlee (16 years old) did extremely well, and walked away with 2nd place.

We would also like to thank both Kate Buckham and Aden Young for watching over the two lads who were competing and helping them through it.

Well done to both lads and we look forward to taking part in more "opens" throughout the year.
