A TRIO of young county boxers were celebrating medal success at the Eastern District Championships, held in Fife last week.

Bronx Boxing Gym trio John McCallum, Ben Cymber and Daryl Brown all won gold medals at the event, while there was disappointment for Mack Murdoch, who missed out on a medal after a hard-fought semi-final.

Continuing their success, Cymber and Murdoch claimed silver medals at the Scottish Intermediates, while the club’s super heavyweight is currently in Australia. Mitchell Barton, a GB Three Nations youth champion in 2015, has travelled Down Under with Team Scotland, for training ahead of the Commonwealth Games next year.

John McCallum Senior, a coach at the Tranent-based club, was delighted with the boys’ achievements.

He said: “There’s lots happening at the moment.”
