Team Mac

Attract young people from all backgrounds to boxing, especially those from groups that have traditionally been hard to reach.

The non-contact boxing activities are delivered twice weekly at the local youth club. Young people can attend at any level and ability.

In 2018 they successfully acquired funding from BBC Children in Need to deliver a 3 year project to engage with young people in the Hatfield/Stainforth area of Doncaster. The project has engaged with over 150 young people during the length of the project, a 25% increase on estimated target.

The newly developed Team Mac boxing awards have recently awarded 12 young people their bronze award as the young people start their learning journey to gain boxing skills. Both Jamie and Gavin McDonnell attended the first award ceremony. The awards have over 40 young people working towards bronze or silver awards.
