International Boxing Showcase Comes To Sarnia

The Bluewater Boxing Club is hosting "Banger in the Hanger" Sunday, July 22.

Spokesman Tom Hennessey says several local boxers will lead a Canadian team against fighters from Ireland.

"We've got the Oakleaf Boxing Club coming in from Derry, Ireland," says Hennessey. "They've certainly been in this area before, they've boxed here in Sarnia and really liked the event. So, they'll box on Friday night in St. Catharines, we'll pick them up Saturday, and they'll box here on Sunday afternoon."

The event will be held in Hanger #2 at Sarnia's Chris Hadfield Airport.

Doors open at 1pm.

Tickets cost $15 with kids under 10 getting in free.

Nicole Drury, Katlyn Clark, and Emma McLaughlin are on the women's card, while Kyle McRae, Conner McRae, Nicholas Lord and Dan Botma will be also stepping into the ring.
