Performance: Junior Open Talent Day 2025 Details
March 17, 2025 | by Nabillah Akhtar
England Boxing are hosting an Open Talent Day (OTD) for Junior boxers (born in 2009 & 2010) on Saturday 5th April at Tamworth Boxing Gym, Tamworth.
OTDs are designed to identify talented boxers who may not have been scouted during the recent England Boxing National Junior Championships 2025. This could be due to talented boxers meeting in the early stages of the competition and others unable to enter due to injury or illness.
The standard England Boxing is looking for is high. Boxers on the Performance Pathway are expected to meet training demands and compete in international competitions against the very best from other nations with a potential 24-month age difference.
Each boxer will be assessed on technical and tactical skills, using a rating system (RAGG), and will receive feedback from the England Boxing coaches.
Following the assessment, boxers who meet the required assessment levels will be invited onto the England Boxing Performance Pathway.
