Updates
August
2010 - We recently took a party of 62 camping to Bun
Leisure Selsey near Chichester for a weekend of relaxation,
team building and general fun! The
facilities were excellent and although the weather wasn't the
best, we all had a great time. The trip almost didn't take place
as due to the popularity of the trip we were left short of transport
and if it hadn't been for Hendy Hire stepping in too save the
day by loaning us a minibus we would have been left disappointed
- A big thanks to Steve and Hendy Hire for saving the day.
We
shall honour the trip with a full update in due course so if
you have any photos of the event please put them on a CD and
hand them to Graham or email them to info@westhill-boxing.com

June
2010 - The Hastings Ex Boxers Association, details
of which can be found by clicking here
kindly donate £450 to the HWABC. It's absolutely brilliant
to think that ex boxers and coaches of the club continue to
support the present batch of boxers and coaches.

January
2010 - Having built a self funded extension to the
gym, the club found itself in dire peril as during the build
it was found that the whole west side of the gym had to be pulled
down and rebuilt, however thanks to the patience and generosity
of the builder on site, Bob Bristow and the fund raising efforts
of the committee lead by Colin Parsons the club is once again
on an even footing. We do however owe a huge debt of gratitude
to those who stepped in and supported us in our hour of need
and to those who continue to volunteer their time to ensure
the project is completed. The committee, coaches and boxers
would like to thank:
