The RAF Northolt Stn Boxing Event took place on 23 Mar 23 in the Churchill Hangar with the event being attended by around 400 personnel, including several VIPs, among whom were, Yeoman Warders, The Mayor of Hillingdon, and representatives from the Yeading, Islington, and Pat Wilson boxing clubs. The event was a resounding success which brought the local community and RAF Northolt closer together in a competitive and enjoyable evening of boxing. There were RAF representative fighters from Akrotiri, Honington, Odiham and Lossiemouth.

The 6 entertaining bouts saw Brandon Carr (RAF Odium) defeat Naeem Rahman, Christos Panteli defeat Jared Pugh (RAF Odiham), Yoshua Betts Priddy defeat Vilson Uwagboe (RAF Lossiemouth), Joe Davies defeat Michael Meade (RAF Honington), Rohan Rai defeat Ricardo Dixon (RAF Akrotiri), and Hugh Harries defeat Mattheiu Sevagen.

The ProjO, Fg Off Matt Spencer, Events Manager, FS Dyfan Pierce, and the whole committee would like to extend special thanks to the Stn Cdr for allowing the event to proceed, the civilian boxing clubs for providing such high-calibre boxers, the King’s Colour Sqn for their tireless work during the set-up and clean-up, and MC Paul Royer for his role in creating an excellent atmosphere. Roll on next year!
