“Fraserburgh competitors managed to bring home a whopping six championship belts in one day over the course of the 24-fight card.

“There were Fraserburgh fighters in 19 of the 24 bouts and the Fraserburgh team had a staggering 15 wins.”

The champions from Fraserburgh were: British champion – Eilidh Craib (age 16), Celtic champion – Scott Buchan (16), Celtic champion – Harvey Notini (24), Celtic champion – Calley Reid (10), Scottish champion – Arran Hendry (15) and Northern District champion – Alex Alderson (25).
